Celestron 127EQ Powerseeker

Price at Time of Rating: $149

This easy to use telescope is perfect for the beginning astronomer.
It’s a great size for a beginner to intermediate scope and you will have no trouble viewing details of the moon as well as brighter planets, nebulas and star clusters.
The Newtonian reflector design with a German equatorial mount and high quality materials are very impressive at this price point.
The tripod mount, excellent optics, high quality, and 2 year warranty make this an outstanding buy for your star gazer.
