I'm guessing no, but can this be used for terrestrial viewing also?

All the images in these make of telescopes are inverted but there are erecting adapters available. I have never used one because they are for refractors and Schmidt Cassegrain. The angle might be a hindrance.

Not convieniently...everything in viewfinder is upside down. I would suggest a good pair of binoculars instead of this item.

Everything will be backwards and upside down. Might be fun at drinking parties.

Probably not. The viewing angle is pretty narrow. U could try but it works best up close like hitching up

I agree with the other answers but would add one cool thing it does. Unlike you, the device is not actually "looking" at the sky. Rather, it is referencing an internal map using GPS coordinates. So you can have it locate planets or stars that are not even visible (behind a tree, below the horizon, etc.)

No, this telescope is for astronomy purposes only. If you wish to do land viewing, get a pair of binoculars, or some smaller refractor telescopes can be equipped for land viewing. This telescope flips the images upside down, as is normal for telescopes. I have looked at airplanes with this telescope, but they zoom across the screen faster than I can manually track it.

The way it is, no. You'll have to add a 3rd party accessory. If this is your primary intention, prefer to buy a telescope.

no you cannot. You would be better off with a go pro and something like ground station or another viewing system

It's supposed to be possible. We haven't actually done it, but my husband's planning on adding the rear camera to our trailer this year, and using the Magellan for the monitor.

yes if you want to tinker. If you want to be serious then buy a real quality mount, the mount of this telescope is crap.

In a short answer, no. But let me explain. Under the best viewing conditions, this telescope is powerful enough to view Mars. You will see the red disk resolved and perhaps some fuzzy white blotches at the North and South poles, indicating the polar ice caps...again if the time is right. Even superpowerful telescopes can't do much better than that so keep that in mind. This is a great telescope.

Yes, I guess you could. I sometimes use mine to look at land that is about 60 miles away.

I'm sure u could, a little. I primarily use it for the shooting range. It's not going to have the desired effect that I believe you are looking for, like a telescope would have.
406865
Yes, I believe it could with a small amount of difficulty. All you really need to do is spin the eyepiece to zoom in and out.

I don't see why not, but I have not tryed. And I have no need to. Planet obserwing is better done with a astronomic telescoop.
1491574
You could but the field of view at maximum zoom would be extremely small. Also the quality of the optics are probably not going to deliver the clarity you desire
479308
Yes. You just have to blind scan. If you are not picking up anything, your dish is not aimed correctly. Sateliteguys is best place for these technical questions

It is best used for land gazing at night, not to be pointed at illuminated or lighted objects.A telescope would probably serve your purpose better.

If that is your only video source, then yes. You can also connect to off-air antenna or even satellite.
