Telescopes

Telescopes, telescope accessories, and binoculars for amateur astronomy or terrestrial viewing. 

Contemplate the cosmos! Hopefully no-one is ever too old and world-weary to be amazed at the sheer scale of the Universe and wonder deep thoughts about how it happened, how beautiful it is, are we alone, etc.. Start with  simple star gazing and learn some  constellations. Then buy some binoculars and study the Moon etc. Do not buy the cheapest telescope you can find, they're almost useless. Generally an equatorial reflector will serve better than an altazimuth refractor. Confused by all the different telescopes? Read here for a crash-course in the basics!

This 4x telescope is great for viewing distant objects on land, or attach it to the water-resistant SeaScope to magnify life in streams, ponds, lakes or tide pools. Attach the Aqualite flashlight to the SeaScope for viewing in dark and murky underwater conditions. A built-in ruler allows on-the-spot measurement of specimens, and a thermometer strip determines the temperature in or out of the water.

The attractive Sky-Watcher INFINITY-76 telescopes house the Aspherical Technology usually only found in larger, more expensive telescopes. The primary mirror is altered during polishing to bring the light rays onto a common focal plane, resulting in sharp images full of detail. The INFINITY-76 collects 131% more starlight than the average 50mm toy telescope, bringing hundreds more objects into view.
