Mars--The Great Red Planet appears as a reddish-orange disk. Look at different times of the year and try to
catch a glimpse of the white polar ice caps.
Venus--just like the moon, Venus changed phases from month to month. Some views of brilliant Venus appear
as if you were looking at a distant crescent moon.
Nebulae--The Great Orion Nebula is a very well known night sky object. This and many others are brought to you
by this telescope.
Star Clusters--View millions of stars densely packed in a cluster that resembles a ball.
Galaxies--One of the greatest and most interesting galaxies is our neighbor the Andromeda Galaxy. Enjoy this
and many others. Much, much, more!

ANSWERS TO COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. The image I see in the telescope is upside down
and reversed from right to left ?
• An upside-down and reversed image is a
common characteristic of most astronomical
telescopes. Since telescopes are used for
astronomical viewing orientation is not important.
The image in the finderscope will also be upside
down and reversed.
2. How do I determine the power my telescope ?
• The power of your telescope can be determined
by dividing the focal length of the objective lens
by the focal length of the eyepiece. The
eyepiece focal length is the number printed on
the eyepiece. (For example: 700 ÷ 20 = 35X)
3. Where do I find the Telescope Focal Length
• The telescope focal length is the same focal
length as the objective focal length. For this
telescope it is 700mm. Telescope focal lengths
range from 600mm to 900mm on Bausch &
Lomb, Bushnell and Jason telescopes.
4. What can I see with my telescope ?
• Telescopes with power ranging from 25X to 50X
can be used to view Star Clusters and Nebulae.
90X to 120X telescope can view galaxies. Most
planets can be seen at 150X and higher.
5. What do the numbers on the eyepiece mean ?
• The numbers on the eyepiece represents the
“focal Length” of the eyepiece.

If after you have set-up your new telescope you are unable to see any objects, use this Quick
Reference guide to help you to understand the cause of the problem and quickly determine a remedy
1. I’ve completed the set-up yet I can’t see anything
• Check to see if objective lens cover has been
removed.
• Try to view an object that is 200 or more yards
