Permanent and irreversible eye damage may result.Never use your optic to project an image of the Sun onto any surface. Internal heat build-up can damage the optic and any accessories attached to it.Never leave your optic unsupervised. Make sure an adult who is familiar with the correct operating procedures is with your optic at all times, especially when children are present.
PLUS POINTS Clear optics, super easy finding targets Very light scope NOT SOO GOODStand does wobble a bit and it needed loosening on pivotsSUMMARYThis scope is really enjoyable and super easy to use. Was soo impressed how clear the views are, put in a Meade 4000 10mm and saw Saturn soo clearly. Overall really impressive scope, ok the Stand isnt the best, but will do.I'd recommend a decent zoom to help you find and zoom in on targets.Add in a lunar filter make this a great little scope. I have a Meade Lx 90 8" and Celestron 5" Schmidt Cassegrain, if I'm going to out for anything less that 30mins the 102AZ is first pick as its soo light and easy to get set up

The Celestron Moon Filter (94119-A-CGL) is an almost essential astronomy telescope accessory, it is a screw on eyepiece filter for reducing the brightness of the moon and improving contrast.
The Celestron NexYZ 3-Axis Universal Smartphone Adapter connects your smartphone to your telescope, spotting scope, binoculars, monocular and microscope so you can capture images and video through the eyepiece
