## Description

If you're looking for a dual-purpose telescope appropriate for both terrestrial and celestial viewing, then the AstroMaster Series is for you. Each AstroMaster model is capable of giving correct views of land and sky. The AstroMaster Series produce bright, clear images of the Moon and planets. It is easy to see the moons of Jupiter and the rings of Saturn with every one of these fine instruments. For views of the brighter deep space objects like galaxies and nebulae, we recommend the larger aperture and light gathering ability of the Newtonian reflectors.

Review: excellent scope ...value for money - The celestron Astromaster 70 As is just an astronomical marvel .First of all the packaging was very good taking care that non of the components were damaged during transit. The components of the scope were very easy to assemble requiring no use of the manual at all. The tripod is sturdy,heavy and made of cast iron which gives this awesome tripod a lot of stability. The pan handle of this tripod makes movement both in horizontal and vertical direction very easy. The tripod comes with lock capability to stabilize the scope at a particular site in the sky. Coming to the telescope itself,its just a beauty with a dark glossy blue paint which gives the scope a lot of glamour. The optics are fully coated to give crisp view. The objective is covered with a 2 inch collar which prevents scattered light to enter the objective . its also has its own cap to prevent dust entry. The scope comes with fully coated 20 mm and 10 mm eyepieces of 1.25 diameter. Even though both are Kellner eyepieces the 10 mm gives excellent view of both land and sky objects. The 10 mm is a bit letdown. However upgradation to 15 mm super plossl gives awesome views. The moon has gotten so near coz of this scope.All craters are easily visible and the smooth rack and pinion focuser makes focusing a glory. Venus going through its lunar like transits are easily visible, Jupiter with its moons.the cloud band of Jupiter can be easily appreciated. Saturn with its rings is just a sight to take ones breathe away.mars with a little adjustment reveals its ice caps with this scope. The orion nebula and deep sky objects like Andromeda galaxy are visible through it. The scope also has its own utility tray for keeping spare eyepieces.The scope comes along with a led finderscope which can be adjusted with two finger screws to bring the finder's dots in alignment with the telescope. This telescope even comes with its own sky software which is also very easy to use. One can chose his own location in the pc and locate objects in the sky with ease.However there is always room for improvement by celestron.The telescope is little jerky at high magnificatins which needs correction. The 10 mm eyepiece should be changed.it has very little eye relief. Since its a 70 mm f13 objective so one should not hope of getting useable magnifications above 140x. I had a 6 inch reflector but this gives much clearer images. Another great part of all refractors is that they don't need any maintenance. The reflectors require constant collimation which is a pain. Then the mirrors slowly lose their optical abilities requiring realuminization which is an even greater pain. But such tragedies are avoided if one buys any refractor telescopes. Overall its a great scope , worth the price. Only thing is that one should buy a plossl 15 mm for best results.....
Review: Quality product 👍 - This is good for a beginner as well as for a semi-experienced. The packaging came good,but the lens of the main tube was slightly loose. I fitted it,however. It has a long and heavy tripod, perfect for astronomy. But, if a strong wind is blowing,then it slightly vibrates. The aperture of the telescope is 70mm and focal length is 900mm. U will get a maximum magnification of 90x,which is not too good and not too bad. Still u will see rings of Saturn and Andromeda galaxy in clear skies. The coating of the telescope is very beautiful. And the most liking fact is that, u can see all planets of solar system. For galaxies,u need very clear and stable atmospheric conditions. Images are significantly clear. If u r beginner, go for it. Also keep limited expectations.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best telescope for beginners
*by M***F on 1 February 2025*

Epic telescope for beginners, I've been using this since 2 years and this telescope is easy to set up except if you cant pick more then 7-8, it'll be little hard for you to set cause the stand itself is heavy but overall the telescope is insane as I observed Moon(a lot of times and with more and more clarity each time I use it), Jupiter, Saturn(the rings were beautiful), Venus and some Stars like Sirius, Rigel, Beetlejuice and others, anyway this telescope is worth it to buy if you want to start stargazing but if you're already pro you should try Celestron Astromaster 130 eq md, hope you like this review.
