Our exquisite sky charts and clear instructions will guide you across the heavens and make sure you get where you’re going.

Equipment Advice
Although there is plenty to see with the naked eye, it’s binoculars and telescopes that bring the stars and planets up-close and personal. And when it comes to buying new equipment you’re probably unwilling to leave it to chance. You demand the best buying advice you can find. Our product team has unparalleled equipment savvy, with many decades of experience choosing, using, and testing telescopes, eyepieces, binoculars, and cameras. Our reviewers field-test equipment the way you use it, night after night under a variety of conditions, getting a real-world feel for it. Only then do they report on its features, benefits, and drawbacks.

So, buy with confidence! After you read an S&T Test Report you can walk into any telescope store, or browse the Internet, and know that you’re buying the equipment best suited for your needs and budget.
