The moon and stars are not the only celestial objects to view in the night sky, meet the comet. Comets are small wonders that pass through Outer Space, easily identified by their tails which are the gas and dust that they collect as they soar through Space. Never seen one before? Well, the Cometron 114AZ Telescope allows you to easily catch those beauties on their trek through the night sky.
Features
Even beginning stargazers can catch stunning views of the next comet with Celestron's Cometron 114AZ. Designed specifically for viewing comets, Cometron 114AZ offers a 114 mm parabolic mirror to capture the sharpest views of even dim comets on their journey toward the Sun. Two high-quality Kellner eyepieces are included to enhance your views. The simple Newtonian reflector optical design, altazimuth mount, and included red-dot finderscope make it easy to navigate the night sky. A steel tripod provides stability.
All Around
Cometron 114AZ is also a perfect instrument for viewing objects in our solar system and beyond. Its wide field of view renders the Moon, the Milky Way galaxy, and the rings of Saturn in impressive detail. You'll even be able to observe the moons of Jupiter as well as distant objects like the Orion Nebula.
Construction
The Telescopes features quality optical design with its parabolic mirror that provides sharp image and eliminates spherical aberration for the perfect viewing experience. The fast focal ratio offers a wide field of view, perfect for observing comets, star clusters, galaxies, and more. A large aperture collects more light and provides more detail of all objects. The best part of the whole piece is the no-tool setup which means you are up and observing in no time at all. And importantly, the Cometron Telescope is lightweight and portable, a great grab-and-go telescope for all those spontaneous stargazing parties.
