It's a comprehensive resource for understanding our solar system and the vast universe beyond.

Please note the Solar Warning: Never look directly at the Sun with the naked eye or with an optic without the proper solar filter. Doing so can result in permanent and irreversible eye damage. Never use your optic to project an image of the Sun onto any surface, as internal heat build-up can damage the optic and any attached accessories. Always ensure your optic is supervised by an adult familiar with the correct operating procedures, especially when children are present.

Experience the universe like never before with the Celestron AstroMaster 114EQ Newtonian Reflector Telescope with German Equatorial Mount.
