Celestron AstroMaster 114/1000 EQ

More than 2.5 times more light than a 70 mm telescope

The Celestron AstroMaster 114 EQ The versatile Newton is for those who want to go just a step further. The 114 mm mirror captures 265 times more light than the naked eye: the Moon, Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars appear bright and high-contrast, and under a dark sky, the first deep-sky objects can be observed. The 1000 mm focal length is housed in a short tube thanks to a built-in correction lens in the focuser.

Equatorial tracking with slow motion

After a one-time pool adjustment, you can track each object with a single twist of the flexible rod: objects remain steady in view even at high magnifications. The LED finder assists with rough aiming. The 20 mm and 10 mm eyepieces provide 50x and 100x magnification; a realistically usable magnification is up to approximately 228x. The compact tube remains light and portable, while still offering the magnification of a long telescope.
