the photo of the moon on the background is probably just an "ad photo"... A bit misleading if one doesn't realize...

You won't get that view with a 70 mm "department store" telescope! A few billion dollars and an Apollo space mission are necessary to get pictures that good! (Even the Hasselblad cameras that the astronauts took to the Moon were worth thousands!)
