There is a huge difference between what is essentially a toy telescope in a <1kg box, even with a CE mark but no paperwork, no manufacturer, not even country of origin, and …

What is a huge 15kg box, even if made in China. A carbon fibre 5½” telescope on an equatorial mount.

First one will be credit card chargeback.

Second one will be start of a new hobby for a 7 year old who loves the book I got her on the solar system. I can but hope…

#Astonomy hey astronomy nerd I need your help.

Can you recommend a telescope for a 6year-old kid? Hopefully not super expensive, but definitely cannot be a bad one. Im not sure what price ranges are for a hobbiest

It should also ship to Chile

@TheShellyTea Apparently that's pretty much what it is! I heard an astronomer on the radio here in Ireland, and she was saying that the sun's light shines through the earth's atmosphere, and so the same sunrise/sunset colours that we see are projected onto the moon. Mind: blown.
