Celestron Travel Scope 80 Portable Telescope with Backpack & Smartphone Adapter

Compact enough to travel easily yet properly specified for everyday observing, the Celestron Travel Scope 80 is a refractor telescope with an 80mm aperture, 400mm focal length and f/5 focal ratio on a manual alt-azimuth mount. Coated glass optics and an erect image diagonal support both astronomical and terrestrial viewing, while the lightweight format and included backpack make it straightforward to carry and store.

This beginner-friendly model is supplied with 20mm and 10mm eyepieces for 20x and 40x magnification, a 5x24 finderscope, a height-adjustable tripod and a smartphone adapter that fits 1. 25-inch eyepieces or any eyepiece with an outside diameter of 45mm or smaller. The pan handle and clutch-equipped alt-az control allow precise manual pointing, and the telescope can be assembled quickly without tools.
