    "data": {
        "note": "Magnification = the telescope's focal length ÷ the eyepiece focal length, so a shorter eyepiece magnifies more. Useful magnification runs from about the aperture in mm ÷ 7 (a 7 mm exit pupil, lowest useful) up to roughly 2× the aperture in mm — push past that and the image just gets dim and fuzzy, not more detailed. The true field of view = the eyepiece's apparent field ÷ the magnification, so high power shows a small patch of sky.",
