Here we have a very attractive instrument, Excellently worked and ideal for beginners. The high quality of the built-in optical elements provides extraordinarily rich contrast representations for this class of telescopes. The fixedly mounted spot finder makes it possible to quickly and easily find the desired astronomical objects, through the 1.25" toothed bar telescope the sharpness can be adjusted without complications. The telescope can be used for both terrestrial and nature observations as well as for astronomical tasks, such as observing the Moon and planets. The tube must be fixed to the mount using an ordinary dovetail bar. It is possible to completely assemble the instrument within a few minutes and without special knowledge.

We supply the optical system:

- Celestron 70/900 optical tube with 70 mm aperture and 900 mm focal length

- 20mm and 10mm (1.25") eyepieces

- bright spot finder

- Amici prism 90 degrees (1.25")

The mount Celestron CG-2:

This parallactic mount offers you the basis for telescopes up to about 3 kg total weight. Graduated circles on both axes allow you to perform fine manual movements very sensitively using the flexible shafts. Unlike the slightly larger CG-3 mount, this device has a slightly finer declination axis than the right ascension axis, and therefore does not offer the same superior quality of fine adjustment. He Completely assembled tripod is equipped with 1.25" diameter steel tube legs , supports mount and telescope stably and with very reduced vibrations. On the accessory plate you can store important accessories and always have them within reach. As an option You can add a motor for automatic tracking of the right ascension axis. We even already supply the Astromaster MD models with it.

We supply:

- CG-2 parallactic mount

- steel tube tripod, variable height

- support plate for accessories
