Making a telescopic tube is a great way to explore the night sky. Telescopic tubes allow you to see distant stars and planets with greater clarity than the naked eye. With a few simple materials and a bit of patience, you can make your own telescopic tube in no time.

To make your own telescopic tube, you will need a cardboard tube, two pieces of clear plastic, a drill, a glue gun and some duct tape. Start by cutting the cardboard tube in half and drill a small hole in each end. Once the holes have been drilled, carefully glue one piece of clear plastic over each end of the tube, making sure that the plastic is securely attached.

Next, cut two pieces of clear plastic to fit around the outside of the tube. You will want to make sure that these pieces of plastic are slightly larger than the cardboard tube so that they fit snugly. Once the two pieces of plastic have been cut, glue them to the outside of the tube with the glue gun. Finally, use the duct tape to seal the edges of the two pieces of plastic.

Your telescopic tube is now ready to be used. To use the telescopic tube, point it towards the night sky and look through the end with the plastic attached. You should be able to get a clear view of distant stars and planets. Enjoy!

Making your own telescopic tube is a fun and easy way to explore the night sky. With the right materials and a bit of patience, you can make your own telescope in no time. Enjoy the wonders of the night sky!
