## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can it operate without the cd rom**
A: Yes it can.  The CD has some useful software for planning observations on it, but the telescope doesn't need this to function fully.

**Q: Can you see mars with this?**
A: We’ve only seen the moon. I don’t think it’s powerful enough for Mars

**Q: Can you use your mobile phone to take pictures**
A: This product is not designed to be used with a mobile phone however you can buy adapters that can fit your phone to the telescope but these aren’t available from National Geographic.

**Q: Is this suitable for an adult gift**
A: Hi, not really. it really is child size. My 7yr old is 145+ cms tall and is now stooping to use it a bit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great beginners telescope!
*by E***S on 20 January 2019*

This was a present for little sister to start a possible interest in astronomy. First looks, great telescope, decent price (although I got this from a different store where it was less) and good for beginners. Once opened the box, which was nicely displayed, I opened the manual which I got to say was a tad complicated (as one book with instructions for different versions). Takes about 10 minutes to fully understand what it is getting stated especially with complicated figures/illustrations. Once completed building, on to the actual practicality. It holds up great, I myself have never used a telescope so this was a first for me too. It is great looking, good materials (looks and feels solid). Has a small tripod so perfect for ages 6-10. I found it very easy to explore around, helps as there was a super moon. My only concern/dislike is the fact that the tripod joint (where you can rotate and lever the telescope) is fairly weak and will quite often slide it’s way down due to the weight of the eyepiece and bottom parts, this maybe just my product though. All around, a great a telescope for beginners and my sister will hopefully be able to explore a lot. Pictures are taken from an iPhone 7, it does look a lot better with your eye through the telescope. Taken using the 20MM and 12.5MM eyepieces which comes with this telescope.
