“...I
propose great things for inspection and contemplation by every
explorer of Nature,” wrote the famous astronomer Galileo
Galilei in 1610 after probing the heavens with his crude, self-made
telescope. Those “great things” he mentioned are
still up there, ready for today’s budding astronomers
young and old to inspect and contemplate. You can see them for
yourself with Our Skyview III, which, believe it or not, is
a far more capable telescope than Galileo ever had!
The Skyview III is a classic refractor with precision glass
optics and great portability. It’s a complete backyard
telescope package that includes the optical tube, all accessories,
and tripod.
