Celestron • AstroMaster 114EQ 4.5" Newtonian Reflector Telescope • 31042
If you're looking for a dual-purpose telescope appropriate for both terrestrial and celestial viewing, then the AstroMaster Series is for you. Each AstroMaster model is capable of giving correct views of land and sky. For those who are looking for large aperture and light gathering capability, the answer may lie with the choice of the Celestron AstroMaster 114 Newtonian reflector telescope. Its 4.49" diameter is considered excellent for light collection. When you are looking for faint sky objects such as clusters and nebulae, large aperture becomes important. The AstroMaster 114 features coated glass optics and is capable of producing clear and bright images of the moon and the planets. This unit is on a German equatorial mount, ande secures the scope with a dovetail attachment rail.
It is easy to see the moons of Jupiter and the rings of Saturn with this fine instrument. For views of the brighter deep space objects like galaxies and nebulae, we recommend the larger aperture and light gathering ability of the larger Celestron Newtonian reflectors.
