The addition of wide-field eyepieces changed how we viewed the night sky. Suddenly, we no longer felt like we were looking down a rather narrow tube. Instead, it was like we were standing at the porthole window of a spaceship! Wide swaths of stars swam across the expansive field of view, and we felt like we were there among them! You can always check our telescope eyepiece guide to help you find which eyepiece best fits your stargazing needs!
