The Explore One Juno 50mm refractor is a beginner telescope for kids and first-time stargazers that comes complete with a protective hard case. A refractor telescope uses a front lens to gather light and form bright, sharp images, and this lightweight 50mm tabletop scope on its simple alt-azimuth mount is easy to set up and aim at the Moon and bright objects.

With a short 360mm focal length (f/7.2), it delivers wide, forgiving views that make finding targets simple, and the included hard case keeps everything protected between adventures.

Who it's for

Ideal for kids and first-time stargazers who want an easy, portable starter telescope. Choosing a scope for a child? See our parent's guide to the best telescopes for kids.

Key features

  • 50mm refractor optics for simple, sharp views of the Moon.
  • Short 360mm focal length (f/7.2) for wide, easy-to-find fields.
  • Two eyepieces (20mm & 12.5mm) for about 18x and 29x magnification.

  • Lightweight, kid-friendly design that's easy to use.

What you'll see

The Juno 50 is at its best on the Moon, showing craters and seas clearly. It also reveals the brighter planets and doubles as a daytime spotting scope. As a small-aperture kids scope, it focuses on bright, easy targets rather than faint deep-sky objects.
