National Geographic 114mm Reflecting Telescope

From our National Geographic series, the NT114CF Newtonian Astronomical Telescope is a perfect portal into the realms of lunar, planetary and deep sky observation. Offering a 114mm aperture and a 500mm focal length, the telescope comes with two Plössl eyepieces that produce magnifications of 19x and 51.5x to broaden the range of objects you can explore. The set includes a sturdy alt-azimuth mount with a panhandle control that allows you to smoothly track objects as they move across the night sky. The fully adjustable tripod with fit the height needs of the whole family and includes an accessory tray to keep eyepieces safe when not in use and to provide extra stability. Other accessories are a red dot viewfinder for locating objects in the night sky and a smartphone adapter that makes it easier to center your device's camera over the eyepiece to capture and share images. As an added bonus, this telescope set gives you access to downloadable astronomical navigation software and a downloadable star map. Just add clear, dark skies on a moonless night and a red flashlight to protect your night vision and you will be set to explore awe-inspiring celestial sights!
