Hi, I’m wondering if anyone could recommend what I should use to clean my eye pieces of my telescope? There is no specialized astronomy shop near my location, so I’m wondering could I use wet/ dry/ micro-fibered wipes instead?
Thanks for your answers!

Hello, I recently purchased my telescope, and I’ve finished putting it all together and aligning it with the finger scope ect…

I was just wondering if there are any eye pieces or attachments for both the finder scope and the main telescope to correct the image.

At the moment, I am seeing upside down, and want to correct it to the right way up. I know you don’t need to for space objects, but I like watching animals and stuff as well with it.

Thank you.

Oren.

I just recently got a “Jason” Comet 480 Telescope, I paid $125 for it, I think it may be over priced, but regardless, what can I see with this old telescope? I have a few more eye pieces and a new Barlow lens.

I was given this telescope, but it doesn’t have a manual or instructions. I was able to put it together based on the picture on the box, except for the eye pieces. It looks like there are several to choose from. Beyond know how to use the eye pieces (which I’ll just try by trial and error) I’d like to know more about the other focusing/finding elements.

I have an 8″ Newtonian telescope on a dobsonian mount, I bought it in 2005 but it has been hardly used and is in great condition, and two eye pieces; a 25mm and a 10 mm that i would sell with it but they are cheap quality. Approximately how much could i get for all this?
