This is an un-offical review of the no longer made TASCO 15 to 45 zoom
spoting scope.
I don't know when it was made but I have a idea it was from Japan. You foucs
with the front lens as it has a ring and does turn. The 15 to 45 is done
back in front of the EP with another turning ring.
For the heck of it I went out last night about 9:30 and aimed it at the
moon. At the 15x it was a clear image of the moon, about like some low power
bino's. At the 45x I could still get a clear image but over all it was
dimmer.
Today I went out front and spyed on Edwards AFB, I got my best images at
15,30x's, I could still get a fair image at 45x. but at the 15x it was nice
and bright and clear. I think this thing was made as a Earth viewing
spotting scope. It down have a place for a normal tripot for mounting, it
can be used just about anyplace.
Heck, the price was right!

There are those who believe that life here, began out there, far across the
universe, with tribes of humans, who may have been the forefathers of the
Egyptians, or the Toltechs, or the Mayans. Some believe that they may yet be
brothers of man, who even now fight to survive, somewhere beyond the
heavens.
