Beginners Telescopes

A first telescope should be one you can set up quickly and will use often. Most of the telescopes here are complete kits with a mount and eyepieces, from National Geographic's 70 mm refractors to Explore Scientific's Sidara packages and Dobsonians.

We carry Explore Scientific, including its FirstLight and Sidara lines, and National Geographic.
