Novice astronomer: this scope's for you. The Zhumell 350x60 Ion telescope offers enough power for the beginner and a price that's hard to beat. It's also easy to set up, with a simplified manual that makes unpacking and aligning a snap. Optic tube length is a mere 350mm, or about 14 inches, so the scope can sit nicely on a table or desk with the included tabletop tripod. And small size makes the Ion readily portable, too, so if you're on the go, your scope can travel with you.

You'll get a quarter-century or more of great views with the Zhumell 350x60 Ion telescope.

An astronomical laser pointer will help you share the sights with friends.
