About this product

Model:  cel_astromaster_130eq_pkg
Part Number:  32044-CGL

Great beginner scope with useful accessories included

The 130mm mirror and 650mm focal length delivers enough magnification and light gathering ability to view details on the lunar surface, the rings of Saturn, the cloud belts on Jupiter and a number of deep-sky targets including the famous globular cluster in Hercules (M13) and the Great Nebula in Orion (M42). 

An easy to use built-in red-dot finder helps you centre the target and an all-metal German Equatorial (GEQ) mount with slo-mo flexible control cables enables you to track the target manually as it moves across the sky. 

FEATURES

  • Manual German equatorial mount with setting circles – to accurately locate and track sky objects
  • Adjustable, full height steel tripod with deluxe accessory tray
  • Quick and easy no-tool setup
  • Accessories include a 20mm and 10mm eyepiece and a finderscope.
  • Download Starry Night Basic Software with a 10,000 object database, printable sky maps and 75 enhanced images

Manual German Equatorial telescope

The AstroMaster mount comes with two slow motion control knobs that allow you to make fine pointing adjustments to the telescope in both Right Ascension and Declination axes, also referred to as RA and DEC.

Accessories Included

Accessories include a 20mm and 10mm eyepiece, a finderscope. The two eyepieces offer different magnifications for low and high powered views.  The 20mm has a built-in erect image corrector.

brilliant advice
17 November 2020  | 

My teenage son has taken a first interest in astronomy, but I must confess I know nothing about telescopes and star watching. After doing some background reading and research on the internet I was more confused than before. Dave was extremely helpful and walked me through the pros and cons to help identify which telescope would work best for us. Would highly recommend.
