Celestron AstroMaster 130EQ-MD Reflector Telescope

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. This larger 130mm instrument is especially suited to observation of deep sky objects and includes a motor driven mount to accurately track night sky objects.

The AstroMaster Series produce bright, clear images of the Moon and planets. It is easy to see the moons of Jupiter and the rings of Saturn with every one of these fine instruments. For views of the brighter deep space objects like galaxies and nebulae, we recommend the larger aperture and light gathering ability of the Newtonian reflectors such as this 130mm instrument. The AstroMaster 130EQ-MD also benefits from a motor driven equatorial mount which after a simple polar alignment greatly aids tracking of objects accurately in the night sky.
