Monday evening I went to Aldi to get a few groceries. When I passed the promotions corner, I couldn ‘t control myself when my arm reached out to a box containing this:

Aldi Telescope

Yes, indeed, I ‘m watching the stars from now! For 40€ you get a full fledged telescope. Of course I didn ‘t expect much from it, I call it the Aiptek of the  telescopes. But hey, it gives a decent picture of planets or earth objects on the horizon. Unfortunately many parts are quite shaky and joints kind of stiff. I ‘m sure if I put some vaseline on the joints that issue will improve. And given anticipation of quite some play on the reverse lens, I ‘m sure I ‘m gona have many wonderful moments.
