Details

If you’re looking for a dual-purpose telescope appropriate for both terrestrial and celestial viewing, then the Celestron AstroMaster 90EQ MD Refractor Telescope w/ Motor Drive is for you. Each AstroMaster model is capable of giving correct views of land and sky.

The AstroMaster Series produce bright, clear images of the Moon and planets. It is easy to see the moons of Jupiter and the rings of Saturn with every one of these fine instruments. For views of the brighter deep space objects like galaxies and nebulae, we recommend the larger aperture and light gathering ability of the Newtonian reflectors.

This Model Comes with a Motor Drive.

Overall Score
i think it is a great product more for the pro. i would definitely recommend it to a friend (Posted on 1/11/09)

Pros: light, easy to carry, price, portability, light weight, Accurate, user friendly, Good price, Decent glass, Positive adjustments, Cheap, portable, great first telescope, accurate, adjustments, quality +++, Beautifully crisp image!
Cons: tripod quality, focus mechanism, Little bulky to wear, Rough finish, Poor Reticle Illumination method, May encourage you to buy a big telescope!, Camera pointless - doesn't zoom along with binoculars., Doesn't focus real well, image blured, Size; it's not small. But that's because it's a Dob; it's expected
