  You'll get bright, sharp views of celestial objects and observe the Moon's mountains and craters in crisp detail. Thanks to the National Park Foundation FirstScope's wide field of view, you'll be able to observe expansive views of the sky, which include open star clusters, or favorite deep-sky objects like the Orion Nebula.
