FAQs
What can be observed by my telescope?
With the included eyepieces, you can observe the crater of the moon, planets of our solar system (Saturn), as well as Orion Nebula. You can also
observe terrestrial objects such as sail boat. However, please keep in mind that never look at the Sun without a proper solar filter, this may
permanently damage your eyes.
There are 3 included eyepieces, which one should I start with?
Best practice is to start with lower power eyepiece because the lower magnification gives you a large Field of View (FOV) of the sky making
locating the object easier. After centering the object in the eyepiece, you may switch to a higher power eyepiece to see more detail
