This portable telescope is great for the amateur astronomer

The sky is always much clearer outside of urban spaces. Next time you find yourself in the wilderness, you should come prepared with this Outdoor Monocular Telescope. It provides a crystal-clear view of stars, landscapes, and the rest of the natural world, and is now being offered in the Boing Boing Store.

This telescope features a 50mm glass objective lens that's capable of magnifying your sight up to 90x. It comes with a lightweight aluminum tripod, and everything together is small enough to fit in a backpack. Amateur astronomers can get a closeup of constellations on camping trips and better take advantage of pollution-free skies.

To accommodate different viewing environments, it also includes a selection of eyepieces for maximum comfort. You can grab this Outdoor Monocular Telescope with Portable Tripod for $58.99 in the Boing Boing Store.
