Whether you want a basic scope or a more advanced system, Amazon has tons of Celestron models for the lowest prices of the year.

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have detected unexpected high-energy ultraviolet radiation around five infant stars, or protostars, in the Ophiuchus star birthing region. The discovery could prompt a change in our models of star formation.

If, however, you want to go a step further and observe wildlife from further afield, you could consider a spotting scope instead.

A telescope in Chile has captured a stunning new image of the Butterfly Nebula, a grand and graceful cosmic wonder.

When it launches, the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will be tuned to the frequency needed to measure oscillations on over 300,000 red giants, which will aid in better understanding the planets that orbit them.

A long-delayed project to build the largest telescope in the Northern Hemisphere atop Mauna Kea in Hawaii has been given new life, as Spain has offered new funding and a new location on the island of La Palma.
