About Celestron Astromaster 80AZS Short Tube Refractor Telescope with Altazimuth Mount

The AstroMaster 80AZS is a short refractor telescope perfect for terrestrial and celestial viewing. The short focal length is ideal for viewing star clusters and nebulae, while the erect image star diagonal makes the optical tube ideal for using as a spotting scope during the day.

The adjustable tripod legs allow you to customize the telescope's height or place it on raised surfaces like a picnic table.
