Celestron AstroMaster 130EQ 130mm F5 Reflector Telescope: Designed for close and deep-sky observation with a fast focal ratio for astrophotography/imaging, Celestron's AstroMaster 130EQ 130mm f/5 Reflector Telescope features a 650mm focal length and an oversized parabolic mirror that produce detailed images of the Moon, clear views of the planets, and the ability to resolve distant objects such as nebulae and galaxies.

The scope is outfitted with a 1.25 rack-and-pinion focuser and two eyepieces to get new users started: a 10mm that yields 65x power and a 20mm for a 32.5x magnification. The 20mm eyepiece integrates an erecting system to correct images horizontally and vertically to allow easy terrestrial use. An unmagnified red-dot finder is also included to help set up, align and navigate easier.

The included manual equatorial mount features slow-motion control cables that make it easy to track objects even when wearing gloves while minimizing vibrations caused by handling the support with your hands; and visible indicators on the Right Ascension and Declination axes. An adjustable-height aluminium tripod rounds out the rig with a tray for accessories such as eyepieces, filters, and lights.
