Choosing the Right Telescope
The best telescope depends on what you want to observe. Refractor telescopes deliver crisp, high-contrast views of the Moon and planets while requiring very little maintenance. Reflector telescopes gather more light, making them ideal for viewing galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters. Compound (catadioptric) telescopes combine mirrors and lenses to offer powerful performance in a compact design that's perfect for both visual observing and astrophotography.
If you're just getting started, explore our selection of beginner-friendly telescopes or browse our astronomy learning resources to help choose the right optical design.
Smart Telescopes & Computerized Viewing
Smart telescopes are transforming amateur astronomy. Brands like Vaonis combine automated alignment, computerized object tracking, integrated imaging, and smartphone controls to make observing easier than ever. Computerized GoTo telescopes can automatically locate thousands of celestial objects, allowing you to spend more time observing and less time searching.
Whether you're interested in visual observing or sharing images with friends and family, smart telescopes offer an accessible way to experience the night sky.
