About this product

Part Number: 816.KGT-E
This is a great kit to learn how telescopes work and a fantastic project for groups and school classes.
Galileo is famous for being the first person to point a telescope up at the night sky.
The image appears upright, so the telescope can also be used for daytime observations and nighttime observation of the Moon and several star clusters, including Pleiades, Hyades and the Double Cluster.
With this simple kit, you can build a cardboard version of the telescope he used in the 17th century.
This easy-to-build kit consists of a cardboard tube and two lenses.
The pre-punched kit contains an objective lens with a 225mm focal length and an eyepiece lens with a 35mm focal length. This gives a magnification of 6.4x.
