Learn how to use telescopes and the differences between different tubes with a teacher by hand.
Syrjävaara has different telescopes and binoculars so you can get to know them, and you don’t have to buy a pig in a poke.
We will familiarize yourself with different sky observation gadgets so you know what suits your needs. We will go through assembly, orientation and finding targets. We will also talk about the quality of telescopes and tripods.
Buy yourself a telescope, only when you know what kind of telescope you need or want, have tried one and know how to use it. There are many twists and turns on the way. It’s not worth learning everything from scratch and at the expense of your wallet. When you know how and know, you can enjoy observing the sky.
