It's a beauty - when you get the weather.....
It's 800mm long and has two eyepieces - a 6mm and a 9mm which are used for close and far objects (relatively speaking, of course!). On a clear night you can pick out not only Mars' moons but Jupiter's spot and four of its moons aswell. However, the 9mm is pretty useless unless you have a motor-drive because everything moves so damned fast across the sky!
I have no idea why I bought the bloody thing. It cost a small fortune and in the two years I've had it I've only managed about seven days (or nights) viewing.
