Different eyepiece focal lengths can really change how you see the night sky!

Shorter Focal Lengths:

• They give you higher magnification.
• This means you can see more details on planets.
• However, they show a narrower view of the sky.

Longer Focal Lengths:

• They provide lower magnification.
• This is better for wide views, like star clusters or galaxies.

Here’s a simple way to figure out magnification:

Magnification = Telescope Focal Length ÷ Eyepiece Focal Length

So, pick your eyepiece based on what you want to see in the stars!
