Celestron 21024 FirstScope Telescope

Celestron 21024 FirstScope Telescope
I gave one of these to my 11 year old grandson and we had fun looking at the moons of Jupiter and our own moon the first night he had it. It gives us something to do together and is sparking an interest in him to see more. I told him this is better than the telescope Galileo had and it is plenty good enough to teach him something too. I read a sourpuss review that complained the eyepieces are not as good as the rest of the scope, but for the price I am very impressed and one can always buy a better eyepiece. I think it is a great bargain for $[...] and your child should have one too.

In my short time using this telescope, I have found it very easy to use; much easier than a regular full tube telescope. I have an easy time finding planets, and keeping them in my sight, without having to twist and tighten a whole bunch of knobs. It is easy to focus; very similar to using a microscope to view planets. I already have an assortment of lenses to go with it, and they all work well, even though they are not the brand name. It is very upgradable, with many different types of lenses and filters you can buy for it, which makes it an all around very adaptable telescope.
