 Celestron telescope AstroMaster 130EQ

This Newtonian mirror telescope with its large opening is ideal if you want to observe the faint deep sky objects outside the solar system. Of course, you can also use it to observe the moon and planets, but then you will need either additional eyepieces or a Barlow lens to achieve the necessary high magnifications.

The equatorial mount is specially designed for observing the sky: If you align it on the Polarstern, you only have to adjust the telescope in one axis if you are observing planets at high magnification, for example.

The AstroMaster telescopes

If you are looking for a versatile telescope for both sky and earth observation, then the AstroMaster series is the right choice for you. The image-straightening overview eyepiece (for Newtonian telescopes) provides upright, right-sided images.

An AstroMaster not only offers breathtaking views of the moon, of Saturn with its ring, Jupiter with its bands and moons, of nebulae and star clusters. You can also observe the sun's activity with an optional sun filter.
