Manufacturer's Website

Description

The Celestron TravelScope 70 is a refractor telescope perfect for terrestrial and celestial viewing on the go. The Travel Scope can view the planets, moon, star clusters, and brighter deep-sky objects like the Orion Nebula and Andromeda Galaxy at night, and the erect image star diagonal makes the optical tube ideal for use as a spotting scope during the day.

Setting up the telescope is a breeze and will have you observing in no time. Even on your first time out, you can assemble the telescope and its accessories in just a few minutes. The adjustable tripod legs allow you to customize the telescope’s height or place it on raised surfaces like a picnic table.

Navigate the sky with a panhandle Alt-Az control with a clutch for smooth and accurate pointing. Move the clutch in an up/down, left/right fashion to track your object in the eyepiece.

The TravelScope 70 comes with two eyepieces (20 mm and 10 mm), 45° erect image diagonal, a finder scope, and a travel backpack. The two eyepieces offer different magnifications to view your intended object. The erect image diagonal allows for right-side-up viewing ideal for terrestrial subjects but can also be used for celestial objects. The 5x24 finder scope will help you quickly centre an object in your eyepiece for easier observing.

Travel Backpack – A custom backpack comes with your telescope for you to store your optical tube, tripod, eyepieces, and accessories comfortably. With the telescope’s backpack, travelling with your telescope is a breeze; all the components fit inside of the backpack snugly.
