Discover the night sky with the Celestron AstroMaster 130EQ, a powerful, beginner-friendly telescope designed for both planetary and deep-sky viewing. Its impressive 130mm (5.1") primary mirror gathers plenty of light, revealing detailed views of Saturn’s rings, Jupiter’s moons, lunar craters, and distant galaxies like Andromeda. Aluminum and SiO₂ coatings boost brightness and contrast, delivering stunning clarity on every target.

The 130EQ comes complete with essential accessories, including a 20mm eyepiece with built-in erect image corrector (providing 33x magnification), a 10mm eyepiece for higher-power 65x views, a StarPointer™ red dot finderscope to help you quickly locate objects, and a free download of top-rated astronomy software Starry Night to help plan your stargazing sessions.
