Really cool Galileo telescope for $15

As you know, it is the International Year of Astronomy (IYA) as well as the 400th anniversary of the astronomical telescope. There is a very cool telescope that is part of these celebrations, the Galileoscope, and it is only $15 and takes just a few minutes to assemble.

If you are an educator, troop leader or other person in front of young people, you can order the scopes in bulk and receive a discount. Or, if you are a generous sort, you could buy some for your school, church or club. If you order > 99 they cost only $12.50 each!

This is a great project. None of us are doing this for the money. This is not a commercial. This is a great learning experience just waiting to happen and/or just a cool little toy to own.

Buy some!
