The FirstScope 114 series features two models to meet your individual needs. Both are high
quality, economical telescope with superb optical systems housed in a glossy black metal tube.
This 114 model features a long tube design that provides lower power that yields a wider
field of view. This model also features an more sturdy mount that the compact 114.
The
equatorial mounts are quite stable, with setting circles and slow motion controls on both axes for
easy, smooth tracking. Strict adherence to Celestron's tough quality standards for
manufacturing, assembly and testing ensures that each telescope performs well.
The German
equatorial mount features setting circles and slow motion controls on the R.A. and DEC axes. These
controls will enhance your viewing experience by simplifying both locating and tracking objects.
When you're looking for a telescope offering a bit more versatility and control than the
altazimuth models, these are the telescopes to consider.
These telescopes yield
breathtaking views of the moon, Saturn with its ring structure, Jupiter and its belts, and
hundreds of deep-sky objects including: galaxies, nebulae and star clusters. Add an optional solar
filter and you can observe activity on the sun.
