Telescope Components and Usage
The telescope consists of the following main parts:
- Eyepiece: The part you look through to view distant objects.
- Optical Tube: The main body of the telescope that collects light.
- Cradle Base: A base designed to rest the telescope on a flat surface for stable and comfortable observing.
- Shoulder Strap: An adjustable strap that can be worn over the shoulder to hold the telescope firmly when a flat surface is not available.
For stable and comfortable observing, this reflector telescope can be placed on a flat surface using the cradle base. When there is no flat surface, you can simply put the shoulder strap over your shoulder and hold the telescope firmly with both hands.
