First Light Kit

First Light Astronomy Kit
for Small Telescopes and Binoculars

First Light brings together the essential resources a beginner needs to get started observing the sky.

First Light includes nearly $50 worth of materials at a fraction of the cost.

What does a beginner need to get off to a successful start observing the sky? First Light is our answer to that need. It brings together The Night Sky, our uniquely designed low-distortion planisphere, Exploring the Night Sky with Binoculars, our award winning introduction to observational astronomy, and Sky Atlas for Small Telescopes and Binoculars, our sky atlas designed specifically for beginners with small optics.

But First Light is more. You get a three-year planet locator, a three-year daily moon phase calendar, a reference card on comets, a table of the best meteor showers, and an observing log master page to be duplicated to start a well-organized observing logbook. The kit comes beautifully packaged in a heavy-duty two-pocket folder to be saved and used for organizing and protecting your astronomy materials.
