This is a Vixen70mm scope on a more versatile mount for a about the same $ and looks attractive.

For land viewing, it may be best ask for a lower power eyepiece (25 or 30mm), else the view may be a little over-magnified.

This telescope will give far better views of the Moon and the planets than the suggested 102mm F5 scope, with little false colour.

However, expect to see only the very brightest galaxies and deep sky objects.
