Small size, big fun<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Celestron FirstScope 76\/300 Dobson<\/strong> is an easy-to-use entry-level telescope that makes stargazing easy and fun. With a mirror aperture of 76 mm<\/strong> and a focal length of 300 mm (f\/3.9)<\/strong> This Newton reflector delivers surprisingly clear images of the moon<\/strong>, planets<\/strong> and the brightest deep-sky objects<\/strong>. The compact Dobson mount makes it ideal for beginners and families who want to observe without complicated assembly or alignment, just set it down, point it and watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Easy to use, ideal for young and old<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The FirstScope<\/strong> stands on a robust table top hobson base<\/strong>, which lets you move the tube smoothly horizontally and vertically. Point it intuitively at the moon or a star and focus with the 1.25\u2033 rack & pinion focuser<\/strong>. Its lightweight design (about 2 kg) makes it effortless to move and perfect for balcony, garden or camping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 76 mm mirror<\/strong> collects over 100\u00d7 more light than the naked eye, so you can soon see the craters of the moon<\/strong>, the rings of Saturn<\/strong>, the moons of Jupiter<\/strong> and bright nebulae such as Orion (M42)<\/strong> can explore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Ready to use immediately<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Celestron supplies the FirstScope complete with two eyepieces (20 mm and 4 mm)<\/strong> for different magnifications. The 20 mm eyepiece provides a wide field of view for exploring the moon and star fields, while the 4 mm eyepiece is suitable for higher magnifications on bright objects. The telescope is fully pre-assembled and ready to use within one minute, no tools required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its compact size and eye-catching design, the FirstScope fits even as a decorative object<\/strong> on a desk or bookshelf, a telescope that is not only functional but also inspiring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
