Designed for children aged 8 and above, the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC 40/400 tabletop telescope is the perfect entry-level telescope. The refracting telescope can be set up in no time, and allows you to go on your own journey of discovery through space. Equipped with a 40 mm aperture, it collects 32 times more light than the human eye. And thanks to the 400 mm focal length, you can observe at 20x and 32x magnification with the two included eyepieces – perfect for viewing the fascinating details of the lunar landscape or Jupiter and its moons.
Everything you need for your astronomical adventures!
The children’s telescope comes with an extensive range of accessories to get you started with your night sky observations. For example, you can position the telescope with the azimuthal mount on the tripod for easy manoeuvring – simply move it up or down or side to side as needed. And thanks to the built-in compass, you’ll never lose track of your bearings.
If you want to share your observations of the planets, moon and other night sky objects, you can use the smartphone holder to capture your own photos through the telescope and take your first steps into the world of astrophotography!
A star diagonal is also included with the set, which provides a 90° viewing angle for maximum comfort during long observation sessions.
