Celestron collaborates with lunar imaging expert Robert Reeves for the latest addition to the popular FirstScope series: the FirstScope Signature Series: Moon by Robert Reeves. This high-quality Dobsonian-style telescope boasts a spherical glass mirror with a generous 76mm aperture. Offering a wide field-of-view, the FirstScope delivers vivid, detailed views of the Moon's craters and mountains. Additionally, it allows for exploring the Milky Way, observing Saturn's rings, or admiring deep-sky objects like the Orion Nebula.

This telescope, compact and lightweight, is perfect for beginners in astronomy. Simply unbox it, insert an eyepiece, and start observing. To navigate the sky, just adjust the azimuth axis towards your desired target. The FirstScope couldn't be simpler or more portable.

Thanks to its compact design, the FirstScope Signature Series is easy to bring along on camping trips, picnics, or hikes. When not in use, it adds a stylish touch to your bookshelf or desk.

Get acquainted with our neighboring celestial body, the Moon. Robert Reeves' signature FirstScope includes a custom wrap highlighting 10 lunar features such as Tycho, Plato, and Copernicus.
