Celestron Telescope N 127/1000 PowerSeeker 127 EQ

The Celestron Telescope N 127/1000 PowerSeeker 127 EQ is a powerful beginner's reflector with an aperture of 127 mm. Thanks to this mirror, you capture enough light to view the moon in detail, see the rings of Saturn and the cloud bands of Jupiter, as well as discover the brightest deep-sky objects such as the Orion Nebula or the Andromeda Nebula.

With a focal length of 1000 mm (f/7.9), the telescope offers a good balance between magnification and field of view. This makes it suitable for both planetary observations and first steps in deep-sky observations.

The German equatorial mount (EQ) helps track celestial objects accurately. Fine adjustments allow you to keep an object in view smoothly while the earth rotates. The aluminum tripod with accessory tray provides stability and space to keep eyepieces and lenses within easy reach.

The included accessories - two eyepieces and a 3x Barlow lens - give you flexibility in magnifications, so you can immediately start with different observations.

Application

With the Celestron PowerSeeker 127 EQ, you can see:

• Craters and mountains on the moon in detail
• Saturn's rings and Jupiter's moons
• The phase of Venus and the disk of Mars (during opposition)
• Bright deep-sky objects such as the Orion Nebula, the Pleiades and the Andromeda Nebula

This telescope is ideal for beginners looking for an entry-level model with just a bit more aperture than the 114 mm versions, allowing more details to be seen. Thanks to the equatorial mount, you will immediately learn to work with a system that can track celestial objects, a valuable step toward advanced observation.
