The Celestron SSS90 refractor telescope is an ideal choice for both terrestrial and celestial applications. This telescope comes with a special adjustable bracket exclusively to mount the Celestron SkyScout Personal Planetarium, which can be purchased separately. This innovative idea promises to make stargazing an experience truly informative and rewarding.
The Celestron SSS90 produces sharp and crisp images thanks to the superior multi-coated glass used by the manufacturer. Because of its refractor optical design, the telescope can render high resolution planetary, lunar, and deep sky images. The SSS90 offers the possibility for astrophotography with the optional dedicated T-adapter. The telescope comes complete ready to be used with an Altazimuth mount, a rugged pre-assembled stainless steel tripod, a 6x30 finder scope, and a set of two eyepieces.
