Meade® 114mm Equatorial Reflecting Telescope (Model 114EQ-ASTR)
Description: Meade® 114mm reflecting telescope features slow-motion controls and an equatorial mount to make it easier to find and track celestial objects manually—it’s a great investment for beginners who want to learn to navigate the night sky themselves! Because the earth rotates once on its axis every 24 hours, celestial objects move rapidly through the telescopic field, particularly at higher powers. This telescope features a red dot viewfinder to help you find objects quickly. Then, once you’ve found what you’re looking for, the unique equatorial mount with slow-motion controls, rack-and-pinion focuser, setting circles and deluxe latitude control makes it easy to track your object. The large 114mm overcoated mirror gathers 361% more light than 60mm telescopes, so that fainter, more distant objects can be seen in far greater detail. The beginning amateur who intends to use a manual telescope on a regular basis will find the equatorial mount to be a valuable investment. Includes two premium 1.25" eyepieces, adjustable aluminum tripod and AutoStar Suite™ Astronomer Edition software and an instructional DVD to teach you about the night sky and how to use your telescope. 30" w x 30" l x 45" h.
