Bushnell NorthStar 4.5"/114mm Reflector Telescope Kit
Bushnell now manufacturers two Newtonian Reflectors with the incredibly popular "GoTo" capacities. A Newtonian's a great way to achieve a large, space-penetrating aperture at an economical price, with its compromises being that it is solely suitable for astronomy & not terrestrial objects.
After a simple alignment procedure, the user merely tells the scope where to go amongst its 20,000 object database. Everything needed to begin enjoyable viewing immediately is included in the package.
- Remote control with voice communications
- Included Barlow lens doubles your eyepiece power, giving you twice the magnification when used with appropriately-powered eyepieces
- Altazimuth computerized tracking of the celestial objects
- Adaptable to cameras

Comments about Bushnell NorthStar 4.5"/114mm Reflector Telescope Kit:
As an amateur astronomer, I wanted a telescope that would make it easy for me to find objects in the sky. This telescope does just that. Celestial objects come through clear and beautiful. If I had to choose a drawback, I would say that the telescope is a bit bulky, but it's necessary for the quality of the scope.
