Customer Review: A GREAT FIRST TELESCOPE FOR A DECK!
Summary: 5 Stars
This telescope is a great first scope to set up on a deck to watch the lake and also the stars at night. It's a basic good quality beginner scope. Don't believe me? Feel free....I don't know much about them so I went and did my research to find one to meet my needs.....read about it here like I did! This website also recommends other telescopes for celestial viewing.

Description of Orion Observer 70mm Altazimuth Refractor Telescope
Our Observer 70 is the perfect telescope for that budding astronomer in your family. This scope excels in both quality and performance. Its 70mm multi-coated achromatic objective lens - focal length 700mm focal length (f/10) - gathers 36% more light than a 60mm. And it's made of glass, not plastic, as you'd find in many department store models. The optical tube is supported on a sturdy aluminum tripod with accessory tray. This altazimuth model can also be used for terrestrial viewing. Standard accessories include a 10mm (70x) Explorer II eyepiece, a 25mm (28x) Explorer II eyepiece, 90-deg mirror star diagonal, and an EZ Finder II finder scope. One-year limited warranty.Digital Cameras and Photo Categories
