Frequently Asked Questions - Space Exploration 44-10050 Discovery
How do I assemble the telescope for the first time?
Unpack all parts, attach the tripod, mount the optical tube, and attach the finderscope and eyepieces. Refer to the manual for step-by-step instructions.
What can I see with this telescope?
With a 70mm aperture, you can observe the Moon's craters, Jupiter's moons, Saturn's rings (as a small disc), and brighter deep-sky objects like the Orion Nebula.
How do I align the finderscope?
During daytime, point the main telescope at a distant object (e.g., a tree). Adjust the finderscope screws until the crosshairs center on the same object.
Why is the image upside down?
Refractor telescopes produce an inverted image. For astronomical use, this is normal. For terrestrial viewing, an erecting prism (optional) can be used.
How do I clean the lenses?
Use a blower to remove dust, then a soft brush. For smudges, use a microfiber cloth with a drop of isopropyl alcohol. Avoid touching the glass with fingers.
Is it safe to look at the sun with this telescope?
Never look directly at the sun through the telescope without a certified solar filter. Doing so can cause permanent eye damage.
What is the highest magnification I can use?
The maximum useful magnification is about 2 times the aperture in mm, so around 140x. Higher magnifications result in dim and blurry images.
How do I focus the telescope?
Slowly turn the focus knob while looking through the eyepiece until the image appears sharp. Start with the lowest magnification eyepiece (20mm).
Why does the image appear blurry?
Possible causes: the telescope is not in focus, the lens is dewed, or the air turbulence is high. Check focus, let the telescope cool to ambient temperature, and try on a calm night.
