Pie Matrix Phoenix 60700 Refractor Telescope – 60mm Aperture, 700mm Focal Length, 3 Eyepieces, 3X Barlow, Tripod & Travel Bag

• Bright, sharp views of the Moon and planets: The Pie Matrix Phoenix 60700 uses a 60mm fully coated achromatic objective lens with a 700mm focal length (f/11.6). It gathers enough light to show lunar craters and mountain ranges in crisp detail, along with Saturn's rings, Jupiter's cloud bands and its four largest moons, and the phases of Venus. That makes it a strong first telescope for young astronomers and families.
• Three eyepieces plus a 3X Barlow for flexible magnification: The Phoenix comes with 20mm, 12.5mm and 6mm eyepieces, which give roughly 35X, 56X and 117X on their own. The included 3X Barlow lens and 1.5X erecting lens extend the range up to a rated maximum of 175X. Start with the low-power eyepiece to locate your target, then step up for closer views. The sharpest, steadiest images come at low to medium power.
• Doubles as a daytime spotting scope: The 1.5X erecting lens shows land views the right way up, so the telescope also works as a spotting scope for birdwatching, hill-station landscapes, wildlife and distant landmarks. It gets used during the day as well as on clear nights.
• Anti-reflective, fully coated optics: Pie Matrix's multi-surface lens coatings cut glare and internal reflections, giving brighter images with better contrast. The optics resolve fine detail down to about 2.3 arc seconds, which is excellent for an entry-level refractor.
• 5×24 optical finderscope for quick targeting: The small finderscope on the tube gives a wide view of the sky, so you can line up the Moon, a planet or a bright star before moving to the main eyepiece. This cuts down frustration for beginners.
• Smooth Alt-Az mount with locking control: The altazimuth mount moves in simple up-down and left-right directions, which is easy for first-time users and children to understand. A locking mechanism holds the tube steady once you've found your target, so the view doesn't drift while others take a turn.
• Adjustable aluminium tripod: The lightweight electroplated-black aluminium tripod extends to a comfortable viewing height for kids and adults. It can also be shortened for use on a tabletop, balcony ledge or terrace wall.
• Sets up in minutes, no tools needed: The Phoenix is designed for fast, beginner-friendly assembly. Even on your very first night, you can go from box to eyepiece in a few minutes and spend the time observing rather than struggling with parts.
• Portable with a travel bag: At around 3.2 kg, the whole kit packs into its travel bag for road trips, dark-sky getaways, school astronomy nights and camping weekends away from city light.
• A hands-on STEM learning tool: The telescope makes space science real for children. They learn about lunar phases, planetary motion, optics and magnification by seeing for themselves, which builds curiosity and patience in a way screens can't.
• Safety first: Never point the telescope at or near the Sun without a certified solar filter, as this can cause instant, permanent eye damage. Children should always use it under adult supervision.

A telescope is one of those gifts that stays with a child for years, from the first look at the Moon's craters up close to later evenings spent following planets across the sky. The Pie Matrix Phoenix 60700 is simple enough for a beginner and still offers enough optical range for the whole family to enjoy. It makes a thoughtful gift for birthdays, Diwali, Children's Day, or any young stargazer with a science project coming up.
