The classic long Newtonian for those who want to start seriously<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Celestron PowerSeeker 114 EQ<\/strong> is a classic Newtonian reflector with a full-length tube. The 114 mm mirror collects 265 times more light than the naked eye: lunar craters in detail, the rings of Saturn, the cloud belts of Jupiter, and bright deep-sky objects such as the Orion Nebula. The 900 mm focal length (f\/7.9) provides stable, sharp images at medium and high magnification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Equatorial tracking<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The German equatorial mount tracks the rotation of the Earth with a single slow-motion control, keeping objects in view longer than on a simple altazimuth mount. The aluminum tripod with accessory tray keeps eyepieces within arm's reach. In this way, you immediately learn the operating method that also belongs to advanced telescopes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Honest about the enlargement<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Included are 20 mm and 4 mm eyepieces plus a 3x Barlow lens. The 20 mm eyepiece (45x) is your workhorse, optionally with the Barlow at 135x. The 4 mm eyepiece (225x) is at the theoretical limit of this optics; do not combine it with the Barlow, because above approximately 228x, extra magnification only yields a darker and blurrier image. A 10 mm eyepiece will be a useful upgrade later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
