Buying a first telescope used to be risky business, with more cheap models on the market than affordable quality ones. Our SpaceProbe 3 changes all that. It's not only affordable, but its optical quality will make the night sky's treasures accessible right from your backyard.

Pros: Light weight, quick to set up, no noticeable halo so far.

Cons: Some "ghosting" of Moon and Jupiter (may be due to Explorer eyepiece).

The Bottom Line: If you're looking for a scope under $150, this is about as good as it gets. A fine introductory scope.

This reviewer recommends this product.

Review: Bought this for my son for Christmas, he wanted a scope that he could move around as my 8 inch Dob is too heavy for him. It's been cloudy most of the time since Christmas here in Michigan and one of the clear nights it was cold (15 degrees...
