Dedicated to unfolding the wonders of the Universe, the 80LCM Computerized Telescope from Celestron features an excellent combination of power and portability. With its computer-automated technology, the LCM is up and running after locating 3 bright celestial objects.

The 80LCM is a high-quality refractor with an 80mm aperture and a focal length of 900mm. The optical system is fully coated for enhanced sharpness and clarity. Two eyepieces are included - one 25mm as well as a 9.0mm. The mounting platform incorporates a sturdy aluminum tripod with a motorized and computerized altazimuth mount.

New observers will make great use of the LCM's built-in Sky Tour feature - simply pressing a button on the LCM computerized hand-controller activates the system to locate and slew to the sky's most interesting objects. Experienced observers will appreciate the comprehensive database of 4000+ objects, along with the customized lists of the most intriguing deep-sky objects, planets, and double stars.

The LCM combines a powerhouse feature-set with Celestron's legendary optical standards to provide amateur astronomers with a sophisticated and easy-to-use telescope.

        I have never owned a Telescope before so was nervous about getting the right one. This was not only VERY EASY to set up, but VERY POWERFUL for a novice like myself. Was able to see Jupiter & 4 of it's moons on the first night!

          Have yet to get many warm temps or clear skies to put in some solid time but we have used it for a few planets and the moon. My son is amazed at the view. The unit arrived on time and in good condition. The team at B&H was a pleasure to work with.
