Celestron Astromaster 76EQ Astro Telescope

Easy to assemble and straightforward to use, the Celestron AstroMaster 76EQ is a beginner telescope with a 76mm Newtonian reflector optical design, 700mm focal length and a manual German equatorial mount. It suits those starting out in astronomy who want a telescope that can also be used for terrestrial viewing, with erect image optics included for correctly oriented daytime views.

Bright, clear observation is supported by all-coated glass optics and a permanently mounted StarPointer finder, while the CG-2 equatorial mount with setting circles helps with locating and tracking objects in the night sky. A rugged pre-assembled tripod with 1. 25 steel tube legs provides a stable platform, and the quick-release dovetail attachment keeps setup simple without the need for tools. Sky Level 1 planetarium software is also included, with a 10,000-object database and enhanced images.
