They collect light through a large objective lens and direct it to the eyepiece for magnification, allowing close-up observation of both terrestrial and celestial objects!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReflector telescopes use mirrors, and can be better for deep-sky viewing, but tend to require more maintenance and adjustment. You can find both kinds in our shop!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eCan I use this telescope inside and outside?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor best results, use your telescope outside only to avoid any window reflections or temperature-related distortions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eThe view through my finder scope is upside down and backwards. Is this normal?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes! While using the finder scope to locate the object you want to view, the image will appear upside down and backwards. This is normal for all astronomical telescopes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eWhat power should I start with?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe recommend starting out with the lowest power (25mm) eyepiece, for the widest angle and brightest views, before moving to higher power eyepieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eIs temperature a factor in how I use my telescope?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, your telescope will need to adjust to the outside temperature. For more specifics, check the product guide!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eWhat does the Barlow lens do?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe included 2x Barlow lens doubles the magnification of your eyepieces. With the Barlow lens, the 25mm eyepiece will magnify objects 60x, the 12.5mm 120x, and the 7mm 200x.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eDoes the telescope come with a carrying case?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, a carrying case is not included, but the lightweight tripod makes the telescope easy to set up (and pack up).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eWhat is included in the product guide?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe guide includes an assembly diagram, instructions for assembly and use, FAQs, tips, and astronomy resources to guide telescope use for the most engaging, educational experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\"}\u003c\/script\u003e","brand":"Educational Insights","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59418022608977,"sku":"B0007COBFG_MULTI","price":233.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1013\/5958\/3313\/files\/71hX3si_kXL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1780340392","url":"https:\/\/nexirou.com\/products\/educational-insights-geosafari-omega-refractor-telescope-portable-telescope-for-kids-teens-and-adults-see-planets-stargazing-tools-classic-stem-learning-set-gift-for-boys-girls-ages-8","provider":"Nexirou's Educational Toys","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
