Tasco's Novice 402x60 refracting telescope is a great way for budding astronomers to start exploring the sky. In fact, the Novice is our best telescope for those who want to go deep into space without going deep into their pocketbook.

Tasco claims magnification of 402X, depending on eyepiece. Even with a 4mm eyepiece, magnification would be 175X from the 60mm objective lens. This should bring in the rings of Saturn, Jupiter and even bright, deep-space objects without trouble. The Novice's refractor design is reliable, easy to operate and, when combined with high-quality glass optics, delivers clear, bright and crisp images.

Fine features

  • Rack and pinion focus
  • 700mm focal length
  • 25mm, 12.5mm, 4mm eyepieces
  • 2X Barlow lens
  • 6x24 finder scope

    The Novice is a telescope to hit the road with. And that's an excellent feature in itself for traveling star gazers.
