This review is from: Celestron 21024 FirstScope Telescope
After many years of wanting a telescope, I was very pleased to find the Celestron Firstscope for such a reasonable price. It made trying to be a hobbyist astronomer a little less daunting, and it’s a great way to start. My first night with my telescope I looked at the moon from my bedroom window and was instantly pleased and knew I wanted more out of this little telescope.
I can’t really think of a con with this telescope, for the price, you get more than what you expect and it’s definitely a great value.
I would recommend a moon filter and a barlow lense just to give the telescope a little push to the top so that you really get the full experience of star gazing. Without it, the moon will look a little fuzzy and definitely be a little too bright to fully enjoy and watch for a long time. A barlow lense will give you a greater opportunity to see more of what the night sky has to offer.
Overall, I am very pleased with this telescope and would definitely give it as a gift to someone with an emerging interest in astronomy, or someone with a really great view of the night sky.
