It has a good wooden alt-az mount, which can sit on a table top. It also has a great feature in that the bottom of the mount has a threaded hole so it can be mounted on a tripod (included in this kit). Both the scope and tripod are very lightweight and can easily be placed in the car to go to dark locations. I #39;ll also note that the telescope tube itself also has a tripod mount threaded hole on it, for alternative mounting options. (I haven #39;t explored these yet, but it looks useful down the road.)This kit includes three lenses (25mm, 10mm, and 6.3mm) and a very easy to use finder scope, though I have yet to get it fully adjusted. (That, however, is probably on me, not the scope!) Images are corrected to be right side up, but they are still left-right reversed. So keep that in mind for daytime usage. For astronomy, it is a little weird to be half-corrected, but you get used to it very quickly.The only shortcoming, and the reason for not giving it a full 5 stars, is that the overall design is just too wobbly. Mounted or sitting on a table top, it is impossible to focus while seeing anything. Many scopes share this fault, though. But you end up playing a game of:adjust - pause (to stop wobbling) - adjust - pause - repeat...until you can see ...From:shan hamrickViews:0 0ratingsTime:00:54More inScience Technology
