can this see half of the moon at night

You will see different amounts of the moon depending on which eyepiece you use. The lower the power of the eyepice (higher mm focal length) the more of the moon will be can be seen.

The 50x magnification eyepiece will show all of the Moon at one time. The 125x magnification will show the Moon much larger, it will look like you're right next to it in space.

This is a great telescope for the moon. Very close and detailed. The laser finder makes it real easy.

Yes, the numbers show on both sides. The solar light even shines after a cloudy day. There is rarely a night it doesn't shine. It is great.

The rings can be seen on Saturn, the bands on Jupiter, and the Great Red Spot. You can make out the reddish hue on Mars, but don't expect to see the ice caps. On a clear night you can see this items fairly clearly. The moon has some excellent detail in it, but that's not too difficult to achieve. You can also view some star clusters nicely as well. The Great Red Spot "can" be resolved if you have a sharp enough focus and clear enough night. The double cluster looks fantastic.

The image resolution is ok however outside light needs to be on for better viewing at night.

Yes, you can see the Moon with the 09881 Observer 70 refractor! It comes with two eyepieces giving you 28x, 70x. You may want more magnification so we suggest getting the Orion 2x Shorty Barlow. It goes where you usually put the eyepiece and then the eyepiece goes in the back of the Barlow tem # 08711. If the Moon is too bright for comfort you might consider our 25% Moon filter that will screw into the silver end of either eyepiece Item # 05598. All the best!

No, this telescope is perfect to see the moon but other planets or galaxies is too much for him. Also you can't use the Canon EOS 60D, it wont fit.

yes, if there is sun light.... you should see something.. or the batt is fill.

No. It will only trigger at dusk with movement. There is no setting to keep on from night until morning

The light is not very good. It's easy to see in mild lighting but at night it can be a little difficult.

It will light up day and night even on moon light, it's a good sight, we tested it at night shooting

My guess is that you would want more light than this will provide. Out side at night there is normally not much around to reflect light back. A much more powerful light is normally desired.

Yes and no. The camera has a set of IR LEDs that allow it to see at night. You will have not be able to see what is going on at night unless you do what I did and tape off the LEDs using black electrical tape. What happens is the IRs hit the glass and at night it acts like a mirror and blinds the camera. Without the LEDs it works fine during the day and at night it works decently with ambient/porch light. You could also get an IR LED array for fairly cheap here off amazon and point that into your yard as well. That way it would have pretty good B&W; night vision.

Is full color (during day time) and is capable to see at nights (in black and withe of course)

With windows in the daytime you won't really be able to tell it's on. In the dark it will light shed well enough to find something, but not work by.

I really couldn't say much about it, except its great for viewing the moon. That's all I've had a chance to do so far. Winter in New England doesn't make for good stargazing or sight seeing. Haha

No..... Not worth the money.... can only see at night. Even then it is not real bright!
