Celestron Travel Scope 70
The Celestron Travel Scope 70 refractor telescope is a great instrument for the beginner and the seasoned astronomer as well. The Travel Scope is compact and fits nicely into small spaces when packed in its backpack. There are times when the large reflector and refractor telescopes are just too cumbersome to bring along. Trips to the beach or the mountains with the family usually leave little space for these. The Travel Scope is custom made for such excursions.
For the beginning astronomer, the Celestron Travel Scope 70 is mostly pre assembled and requires no tools. Because it is a refractor telescope, it takes less practice to find objects and bring them into focus. Adjusting the eyepiece of a refractor is a snap. Use the eyepiece with the widest angle, point the scope at the object, and adjust the eyepiece to the object. The moon, with its size and brilliance, is about the best object to use for adjusting the eyepiece. And for the beginner who has never looked through a telescope, the first look at the moon will make it all worthwhile.
The ease of carrying the Celestron Travel Scope 70 gives this telescope many advantages. For the camper, it comes with a backpack to keep it protected. It requires no tools for set-up and assembly is easy. The tripod is good and stable for ease of viewing. Carrying it along on a backpacking trip to the mountains or any wilderness into areas of the darkest skies will be a treat. The backpack keeps it protected from the elements and makes it easy to carry. With set-up being simple it lends itself perfectly to travel.
The optics of the Travel Scope 70 are coated for clear viewing. It comes with an erect image diagonal, making it useful for viewing wildlife and terrain in the roughest settings. The altazimuth mount makes it easy to point at chosen objects. The light aluminium photographic tripod is pre assembled, and everything fits easily into the backpack. The entire package weighs but 3.3 lbs or 1.5 kgs. The finder scope is 5x24 with coated optics, and the magnification of the telescope goes up to 40 times. It comes with two eyepieces: 20mm and 10mm. It has an aperture of 70 mm or 2.76 inches, a focal length of 400 mm or 15.75 inches, a focal ratio of 5.71.
The package comes with the CD-ROM SkyX-First Light Edition. This celestial map contains a 10,000 object database, 75 colour images, zoom and custom printing capabilities, and horizontal projection. With this software, the beginner can get a bearing on the night skies, while the seasoned astronomer can print out maps of objects to look for on camping and backpacking trips or just trips into the backyard. The Celestial Travel Scope 70 is sure to delight any astronomer in all its uses.
