My son takes an immense amount of interest in astronomy. Although we bought the telescope for him, it's me who's always eager to do stargazing. He's a little young for handling it on his own. So I have to supervise in any case.

I haven't explored its full potential yet but if I do I will tell you if it's a good investment or not. I think if it manages to show something interesting then anyone can find themselves attracted towards astronomy. 😀
