Oh, what a wonderful journey it is to explore the night sky with the Edu Science telescope! This magic telescope offers a great introduction for amateur astronomers, with features like easy-to-use controls, clear optics, and magnification power to help you get lost in the beauty of the stars above. Just like when we paint, exploring the night sky with this telescope is all about feeling inspired and letting your imagination run wild - happy star-gazing!

What are the best telescopes under $200 for amateur astronomers?

Some of the best telescopes under $200 for amateur astronomers include the Celestron PowerSeeker 70EQ, Orion StarBlast 4.5 Astro Reflector, and Meade Instruments Infinity 70mm. These telescopes offer good quality optics and are suitable for beginners looking to explore the night sky.


What are the features and specifications of the Edu Science Reflector Telescope?

The Edu Science Reflector Telescope features a 700mm focal length and a 76mm aperture, providing clear and detailed views of celestial objects. It includes a 3x Barlow lens for magnification and a red dot finderscope for easy object location. The telescope also comes with two eyepieces (20mm and 12.5mm) for different magnification options.


How many times bigger does the image appear in a refracting telescope?

The image in a refracting telescope appears bigger by the magnification factor provided by the telescope's eyepiece. This is typically around 50-100 times for most amateur telescopes.


Who can use the HST?

HST operations are controlled by the Space Telescope Science Institute on the Johns Hopkins campus in Columbia, MD. Observation time is requested and approved by STSI, and is given primarily to scientists who belong to the countries involved in HST's funding and construction. Small amounts of time (donated by the STSI Director as part of his own discretionary use) has been allocated for amateur astronomers as well, though they still must present a proposal for consideration/scheduling like everyone else.


Can you use the hubble telescope?

Anyone can request observation time on HST - in the past, the Hubble Director has opened up his own time for use by amateur astronomers. Competition for time is fierce though, and is generally given to academics and scientists, though "targets of viewing opportunity" are considered if it falls within mission parameters. Anyone can download the thousands of photos taken by the Hubble, at hubblesite.org.

How much money does a unskilled astronomer eran in the US?

There is no such thing as an "unskilled astronomer". You can be an amateur astronomer if you have an interest in astronomy; you can even build your own telescope, and make important astronomical observations. And most of the comet hunters are amateur astronomers; the "real" professional astronomers don't bother to search for comets, because they know that so many of us "amateur astronomers" and hobbyists are looking. Obviously, an amateur astronomer doesn't get paid; outside of university settings, there are very few professional astronomers who get paid to do astronomical work.


Who was an English scientist and mathematician who invented the telescope which used mirrors instead of lenses?

Isaac Newton was credited for building the reflecting telescope in 1668. The reflecting telescope design is now very widely used by amateur and professional astronomers, because the cost per square inch of aperture (diameter, the light gathering power) is less than the other designs.

When is the next meteor shower for 2014?

The website for Sky & Telescope magazine (one of the premier magazines for amateur astronomers) indicates that the Lyrid meteor shower on April 22 is the next one due. However, bright moonlight may interfere with good seeing that night.


Where are telescopes found?

Optical telescopes are found through out the world. They have even been taken to space as in the Hubble Telescope. The Optical telescope is the main telescope used by amateur astronomers. They are used in Gardens through out the world. Professional optical telescopes are generally placed on the very top of mountings. This is to reduce the amount of distortion caused by the atmosphere. The Keck observatory for example is at an altitude of 4.2 km atop the summit of Mauna Kea on Hawaii.
