Build your own reflecting telescope from a flat-pack card kit.
The Newtonian Reflector is a type of reflecting telescope invented by Sir Isaac Newton, using a parabolic primary mirror and a flat diagonal secondary mirror.
Follow the instructions to assemble your own Newtonian Reflector, and use it to view the heavens.
It took us about 3 hours total to assemble from scratch, so you'll need some time, a tube of glue and careful fingers, but we think the reward is worth it.
