Before I bought this mount, I had no friends and my social life was a total disaster. Now, I still have no friends or social life, but I have a great telescope mount. I was using the Celestron Ultima II mount. A good sturdy mount, but I spent most of my telescope time looking for things, not at them. The CGE mount sets up easily, the alignment procedures are fast and easy. My first night out with ...             Orion AstroView 120ST EQ Refractor Telescope2 reviews ORION ORION Orion 120ST F/5 Richfield Refractor Telescope 4.7 inch Rate myself as a casual observer, many years ago into astronomy as a teen with my first 60mm refractor which still survived thru the years. Now with the wonderful Goto Scopes quickly drew me back into the hobby. Focused on highly portable ones as even my heavier 6 inch Dynamax Schmidt Cassegrain collected dust so sold it. Currently use the famed ETX90 with Autostar, Celestron 102mm F/10 (4 inch) ...             Orion SpaceProbe 130 EQ Reflector Telescope10 reviews ORION ORION We love this scope My family and I love this scope. We've been able to observe very crisp images of Saturn and Jupiter with 180x using the supplied 10mm eyepiece and a separately purchased 2x barlow. With or without the barlow, viewing of the Orion Nebula is easy. We've also enjoyed looking at the moon and several other objects e.g. Clusters, Andromeda Galaxy. If you're new to astronomy or if you've only used ...             Orion AstroView 90mm EQ Refractor Telescope3 reviews ORION ORION Great Scope! This scope gives incredible views. I haven't noticed any extra color, even on bright objects. I have viewed inside and outside the solar system and have been amazed at all the views. This is now my favorite scope that I own. It's ready to go at a moments notice, no collimation, minor setup and you are viewing. Saturn's rings are no problem, Jupiter's moons, easy. The mount is extremely ...             Orion SkyView Pro 120mm EQ Refractor Telescope1 review ORION ORION Five Star Optics Four Star Owners' Manual First I want to say that I am very happy with this telescope. The optics are outstanding. I have had it two months now, and have only been able to use it a few times, but the views I have gotten have been outstanding. Jupiter for one is great and I have enjoyed using it for observing double stars (Eta Cassiopeiae for example). My only criticism would be the owners' manual. The second time ...             Meade LXD75 SN-10AT 10" 1016mm f/4.0 Schmidt-Newtonian Telescope with UHTC Coatings, Motorized German-Type ...1 review Meade Meade This telescope is big! I was very pleased when I got this telescope. It was BIG! I was very impressed that for the price one could get such a nice telescope. Hey, this scope cost less than my SLR camera. It really is a bargain. The construction seems very solid. The mount is a fair bit of a monster. Quite nice for such a large scope. The whole thing was straightforward to assemble and not at all challenging. ...             Orion SpaceProbe 130ST EQ Telescope3 reviews ORION ORION Amazing Views! First of all, everything I know about using a telescope comes from the Orion website. They have articulate, concise, and well written articles/tutorials/star charts, that gently introduce beginners to the hobby FOR FREE! Second, and most importantly, this little scope is amazing! I live in suburbia next to a street lamp, and down the road from an obnoxiously bright Walmart. Even with the moon ...             Meade LX90 8" Equatorial Wedge, with LX90 Adapter Plate1 review Meade Meade Meade LX90 wedge Some parts have been changed and/or deleted since the instruction sheet was printed so it is no longer current. However the wedge is well made and worth the price.             Konus Konustart EQ 60 x 900mm Motorized Refractor Telescope2 reviews Konus Konus, 2004 Camping Telescope We bought a travel trailer this summer. Along with the great camping, we noticed the stars are so brilliant and seem so close! We were going to buy binoculars but my husband found this telescope on Amazon.com and we were hooked! We are taking it camping this weekend and hope to really learn and enjoy! The ordering and fast shipping were also a bonus! E. Klick             Celestron CG-5C Computerized GoTo Equatorial Mount with Tripod.1 review Celestron Celestron Great mount I bought the CG-5C mount in January and have been using it for awhile now so its time to write the review. Once you get the hang of aligning it with at least 4 stars I found that it can search out objects with very good accuracy. I don't even need to remove my camera to guide from object to object.             Galileo FS85MOHDX 800 x 80mm Newtonian Reflector Telescope3 reviews Galileo Visions, Inc Galileo Visions, Inc Galileo reflector telescope Definitely not for beginners. But intermediate and advanced users will appreciate the telescope. The dvd is helpful and has a powerful planetarium that is also useful tool. The advanced tripod would be a better option than the standard one and we should be given the option as to which one we like and be able to buy either tripod. over all, this was a good purchase. ...             Celestron C150-HD Telescope6 reviews Celestron Celestron Celestron C150 Vs C6-N "Let the buyer beware." Before buying this telescope, you need to know exactly what you are getting. Celestron apparently marketed two entirely different telescope optical tube assemblies (OTA) under an identical catalog number (31056) that covers this telescope. The earlier version telescope has a C150 1000mm focal length, f/7 OTA (with a Barlow-type lens in the focuser draw tube to help ...             Celestron 21043 60mm Equatorial PowerSeeker Telescope10 reviews Celestron Celestron absolutely excellent This excellent, small, light, extremely portable telescope that I can carry for blocks on my fingers to set up in the darkest place is something I've been waiting to find ever since I bought my first telescope in 1986, 21 years ago for Halley's Comet. I wish I had bought this Celestron then but I didn't know anything about telescopes then, about different mounts, tripods, optical quality, or ...             Meade LXD75 Heavy Duty German Equatorial Mount with Heavy Duty Tripod & #497 AutoStar handbox with 30,000+ ...1 review Meade Meade HEAVY is the key word here. It really is heavy. When you see the shipping weight you know it's going to be heavy. You don't really appreciate the mass till you actually lay hands on it. My first impression was utter disappointment though. The moment I powered on the mount it moved about an inch and began making horrible grinding noises. After a few minutes I found the problem. The motor drive for the RA axis had moved. ...             Celestron 31042 AstroMaster 114 EQ Reflector Telescope2 reviews Celestron Celestron Very good bang for the buck I bought this as my first telescope to explore the sky and I am VERY pleased. It's a high quality scope, and the mount and tripod are the kind you get with higher end models. Mine came with an incorrect piece, I contacted the Celestron, and I had a new piece in 3 days. Very nice service. I to had problems finding stars at first, so I went to an astronomy forum and found out the correct way to do ...             Orion Min-EQ Tabletop Equatorial Mount2 reviews ORION ORION An Inexpensive Entry into Astrophotography The MIN-EQ is an inexpensive "tabletop" German Equatorial Mount which allows you, wih the addition of the Orion EQ-1M Electronic Drive System, to take long exposure photographs of the stars without showing "trailing" (an effect of the Earth's rotation which becomes apparent during long photographic exposures causing stars to appear, not as pinpoints of light, but as circular lines). The mount is ...             Galileo FS720DX 720 x 80mm Astro Terrestial Refractor Telescope2 reviews Galileo Visions, Inc Galileo Visions, Inc telescope great for watching the boats on the water.this was a fathers day gift, that turned out to be one of the best gifts my husband ever received.             Celestron 21045 114mm Equatorial PowerSeeker Telescope16 reviews Celestron Celestron good for price Many of the reviews say that the mount is shakey. Understand for the price there will be limitations. Also 675x in unrealistic in most scopes. My boys still haven't opened it so my evaluation is not completely accurate. Remember not to use this scope about about 150x. That's about as high power as you can practically get. Also for looking at stars you don't want high power. They are just ...             Celestron 31045 AstroMaster 130 EQ Reflector Telescope2 reviews Celestron Celestron good optics The optical quality is quite good, with a good field of view and very limited spider effect. The star pointer is fair to poor however if used with a low power lens (25mm or larger) it will suffice. Barlow usage is excellent and I'm amazed at lunar observation. Only other gripe is when slewing at a low polar angle you can run into the knobs. Mount seems solid however I don't care for the dec. ...             Galileo Visions CC-2800 800MM*60MM Astronomical Terrestrial Telescope4 reviews Galileo Visions, Inc Galileo Visions, Inc Great for land and sky I bought this telescope for my nephew to use it for views across the land as well as looking at the Moon and planets. As he is a beginner, the pre-assembled tri-pod and altitude / azimuth mount make the scope very easy to set up and use. After doing a little research, I found the 800mm focal length would be an additional advantage for his first views. We also found that the supplied 3x Barlow is ...              search in the category 'electronics' adapter, astromaster, astronomical, astroview, autostar, c150-hd, celestron, coatings, computerized, controller, equatorial, finderscope, fs85mohdx, galileo, german-type, konustart, motorized, newtonian, powerseeker, reflector, refractor, schmidt-newtonian, skyview, software, spaceprobe, tabletop, telescope, terrestial, terrestrial, visions electronics:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
