Description
The Celestron AstroMaster 76 Telescope is a special beginner’s Newtonian reflector which renders its images right side up and laterally correct, making it appropriate for terrestrial and celestial viewing alike. Its 2.9″ diameter is considered very good for light collection. When you are looking for faint sky objects such as clusters and nebulae, large aperture becomes relevant. The AstroMaster 76 features coated optics, and is capable of producing clear and bright images of the moon and the planets. This unit comes with a German-type equatorial mount, a quick dovetail attachment, and a rugged, pre-assembled tripod for your convenience.

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.
