With a custom backpack for all your telescope's parts and accessories, travelling to your next Astro viewing spot just became a whole lot easier. View star clusters, planets, and even deep sky objects like the Andromeda Galaxy and the Orion Nebula at night! This 50mm refractor telescope has fully-coated glass optics, a lightweight frame, and an adjustable tripod.
It features Alt-Az control with a clutch and pan handle to track your desired object with smoothness and accuracy, 2 eyepieces for a variety of magnifications to suit your navigation and 3 Barlow lens to triple the magnification power, a 45° erect image star diagonal for right-side-up viewing, and a finderscope to help you find and centre an object quickly.
To maximise the Travel Scope's potential, download Celestron's Starry Night Basic Software! Your Astro pocket pal.

This software is the premier astronomy software package and will kick your Astro-viewing observations up a notch on your next adventure!
Solar Warning
Never look directly at the Sun with the naked eye or with an optic (unless you have the proper solar filter). Permanent and irreversible eye damage may result. Never use your optic to project an image of the Sun onto any surface. Internal heat build-up can damage the optic and any accessories attached to it. Never leave your optic unsupervised. Make sure an adult who is familiar with the correct operating procedures is with your optic at all times, especially when children are present.
