Celestron AstroMaster 130EQ 130 mm Newtonian Telescope
Including A Motor Drive

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. 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 greater light gathering ability of the Newtonian type reflector telescopes. In addition, this model - the 130EQ (CEL-31051) includes a motor drive on the Equatorial axis of the mount for automatic tracking of stellar objects! Curious to hear more?
