Description

Introducing the Celestron AstroMaster 114EQ with Motor Drive and Phone Adapter, a versatile Newtonian reflector telescope designed to provide clear and detailed views of celestial objects. This telescope is ideal for both beginners and experienced astronomers, offering a combination of quality optics and user-friendly features.

The AstroMaster 114EQ features a 114mm (4.48") aperture and a focal length of 1000mm (39.37"), allowing for bright and sharp images of the Moon, planets, star clusters, and more. The manual German equatorial mount, equipped with setting circles and slow-motion control knobs, enables precise tracking of objects as they move across the night sky.

Setting up the telescope is quick and straightforward, requiring no tools. The adjustable, full-height steel tripod provides a stable platform for observations, and the deluxe accessory tray keeps your eyepieces and other accessories organized and within reach.

Included with the telescope are a 20mm and a 10mm eyepiece, a built-in StarPointer red dot finderscope, a moon filter, a smartphone adapter, and a motor drive. The smartphone adapter allows you to capture images and videos through the eyepiece, making it easy to document and share your observations. The motor drive automatically tracks celestial objects, compensating for Earth's rotation and keeping them centered in your field of view.

With the Celestron AstroMaster 114EQ, exploring the wonders of the universe becomes an accessible and enjoyable experience for astronomy enthusiasts of all levels.
