    has this ever been brought up? Why are telescopes more blurry and with less zoom than the naked eye. Disappointing.
    Just got the observatory and I’m like “whaaat?!”

    Right? It is a laugh. This has to be a made better. I'm on the island in Novia market. I should be able to zoom in and see buildings up close and people up to nefarious deeds through windows.
