Amazon's got tons of options for stargazers and sightseers today, with sales on telescopes and binoculars. The Celestron Astromaster 90AZ, going for $162 down from $260, is perfect for both terrestrial and celestial viewing. Standing at five feet tall, it's got double the light gathering power of standard starter telescopes. With low and high power eyepieces, it's equally comfortable looking at Jupiter's rings or birdwatching. With 4.2 stars out of 670 reviews, it's earned confidence on both fronts.

The Celstron Nature DX 10x42 Binoculars are perfect for nature hikes. Going for $81, down from $150, they're waterproof, fogproof, and have fully multi-coated lenses to allow for well-managed light transmission. They're go-tos everywhere from Yosemite to the nosebleeds.

And if you're going to be camping while you stargaze, make sure you're prepared. Amazon's also got a massive camping sale going on today as well.
