I set this up for my nephews to look at the night sky, you couldn;t see anything. I tried troubleshooting the issue but once I made sure it was put together correctly, it wasn't an operator issue it was a product quality problem. I returned them and regret wasting the time it took to even order them in the first place ( I ordered two so that both kids could use them at the same time) Do not buy unless you want to use as an ornamental piece but even then you could find one that looks a less cheap.
