Skywatchers Heritage 76 is ideal if there's not a lot of room left in
the family car for a telescope or if storage space is limited. This
76mm diameter Skywatcher takes up less room than an average picnic set
and is the ideal way to get started in astronomy. Easy to take away on a
weekend camping trip or casual viewing in the back yard the Skywatcher
76 Dobsonian only takes a few seconds to set up. Excellent for the kids
and those who just want a 'no-hassles' telescope.
Astronomy equipment has come along way since 1609 when Galileo Galilei first looked through his telescope.
