More than you can see from earth.

The earth's atmosphere (and light-pollution) diminish what one can see with a telescope on the surface of the earth. From space the telescope can see much further in both space and time - the light from something we can see in space left that object many years ago. The light from the sun takes about eight or nine minutes to get to earth. The light from the nearest star takes about four years to get here. The farther back you can see across space, the farther back in time you are looking.

If you are a child, then i would recommend the national geographic 50mm telescope. you can get these from argos. They are very good, for you can view the moons craters, jupiters moons, saturns rings, Mercury, and much more, they can also be used to see things in the same room as you, but can still show very high quality images
