Celestron Travel Scope 70 Portable Telescope

Celestron Travel Scope 70 Portable Telescope

The Travel Scope 70 is a compact refractor telescope designed for both celestial observation and daytime terrestrial viewing, making it an ideal companion for astronomy on the go. At night, it allows you to explore the Moon, planets, star clusters, and bright deep-sky objects such as the Orion Nebula and the Andromeda Galaxy. During the day, the included erect-image star diagonal enables upright, correctly oriented views, making the optical tube equally effective as a spotting scope.

Getting started with the Travel Scope 70 is simple and fast. Even first-time users can assemble the telescope and its accessories within minutes. The adjustable tripod legs let you set the viewing height comfortably or position the telescope on elevated surfaces like a picnic table. Weighing only 3.3 pounds, the complete kit is lightweight and easy to carry-perfect for spontaneous observing sessions or travel adventures.

Manual Alt-Azimuth telescope

The telescope features a manual Alt-Azimuth mount with a smooth pan-handle control and clutch system. This allows intuitive up, down, left, and right movements for precise pointing and easy tracking of objects in the eyepiece.

Included Accessories

The Travel Scope 70 package includes:

• Two eyepieces (20mm and 10mm) for varying magnification levels

• A 45° erect-image diagonal for upright, right-side-up viewing

The eyepieces provide flexibility for different viewing needs, while the erect-image diagonal is ideal for daytime observing and can also be used for night sky exploration.
