The telescope is a minor component of a ship. It is however required if you want to get off of a starter planet as it helps you navigate the stars. To use the telescope you should power it. Next, you should adjust it to the coordinates of the planet, star, or beacon you want to see. After you have adjusted it it will display the contents of that object and a 2d image of it. If it is a planet which you are seeing, it will show the planet type, whether it has an atmosphere, the temperature of the planet, the gravity of the planet, the resources the planet contains, whether it has rings, what the ring type is, the amount of asteroids the ring has, whether the planet is tidally locked, and if it has any beacons. Recommended to have on a ship to accompany a StarMap.

"A device that allows you to look at celestial objects and regions of space from a far away distance. Simply click the device and an interface will pop up on your screen allowing you to see details about a planet. To view a specific coordinate, configure the telescope and set to the desired coordinates. Can only see within 100 universe units, any farther will result in a blurry image. Information such as resources on the planet, temperature, distance from its local sun, and planet type will be displayed as well. Must be powered in order to view object's information. Has a 1 minute delay between viewing different systems. "
