Although people can choose both red laser pointer and green laser pointer for their astronomy work, yet more and more people would like to choose green color laser pointer owing to its high brightness and long distance beam visibility. The 532nm green laser pointer is powerful enough to watch stars and other celestial object in the night sky.

On condition of bad weather condition such as heavy fog, serious air pollution, or astronomy researches with a large group of companions followed, higher power green laser pointers with an output power ranging from 100mW to 150mW are very necessary. The higher the power, the quick beam dispersion it will be. The visible beam of green laser pointer could reach the celestial object only in a few seconds, and which is also be used by astronomers to watch spot in those of low clouds.

Green laser pointer is not only used to watch stars but also very useful while mounted on telescopes, which will help astronomers make a fast and accurate pointing of celestial objects. The use of green laser pointer along with telescope will help astronomers avoid a lot of trouble of waving arms, explaining a lot while pointing a certain celestial object. While watch stars in the night sky with a higher power green laser pointer, people should always wear laser safety goggles to protect eyes from the radiation of strong and powerful beam.
