The Omegon N 114/900 Telescope Horizon EQ-1 Neo is your solid start in mirror optics. You set it up quickly. You aim at the North Star. Then you track stars with one dial. The 114 mm parabolic mirror captures a lot of light. Your image remains calm and sharp at 900 mm focal length. So you see more detail on the Moon, planets and bright nebulae.
Parabolic sharpness across the entire image
Not every mirror is the same. This telescope uses a parabolic primary mirror. That precisely concentrates light into a single point. Edges remain sharp. Stars become pinholes. So you get real detail from Jupiter, Saturn's rings and compact deep-sky objects like M13 or the Ring Nebula.
EQ-1 Neo: tracking with one turn
The EQ-1 Neo compensates for the earth's rotation. You keep every object in focus by rotating one axis. The worm wheels and flexible slow-motion knobs move smoothly and precisely. The steel tripod provides stability and dampens vibrations. The accessory tray keeps eyepieces and charts within easy reach. Less fumbling, more seeing.
Crayford focuser: smooth and precise
Focusing feels right away. The Crayford focuser runs on ball bearings. No play. No wobbling. You turn to the perfect focus and your image remains stable, even at higher magnifications. So you'll quickly find that razor-sharp crater wall or that fine ring detail.
What to expect
The Moon shows sharp edges, deep craters and long shadows. Jupiter shows cloud bands and its four largest moons. Saturn appears with distinct rings and sometimes the Cassini separation in calm skies. Under dark skies, M13 and the Ring Nebula become visible as compact, bright targets. You discover more of the sky step by step, each session.
Ready to use and complete
Pointing is quick with the LED viewfinder. The 25 mm and 10 mm Plössl eyepieces cover low and medium magnification with pleasant contrast. The 2x Barlow gets you closer whenever you want. The extension helps you focus at all times. The smartphone adapter and Bluetooth shutter make it easy to take your first moon photos without shake. The Vixen swallowtail and accessory shoe make expanding later very easy.
What we recommend
✓ Moon: excellent fit
✓ Planets: lots of detail for 114 mm
