Amazon Prime Day in October is almost over, but these hot telescope deals are still active. There is something for everyone here, whether you are a beginner stargazer or a more seasoned astronomer. There is even a great deal on the brilliant Unistellar Odyssey Pro, which was one of the best smart telescopes for beating light pollution in a city.

Telescopes help us see objects in the night sky by gathering much more light than our eyes alone can manage. They allow us to see the moon in more detail, star clusters in high contrast and even glimpse rare sights like comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon). Check out the best telescope deals for Prime Day in October and grab one of these amazing optical instruments for less.
