Additional features include a quick-release tripod and accessory tray for fast, easy assembly.

With a unique meniscus-shaped front glass lens element, the Maksutov-Cassegrain optical design has a strong optical heritage in astronomy. Utilizing a spherically curved front lens element in conjunction with a similarly curved primary mirror, this incredible design provides remarkably sharp images in a compact folded-light path package.

The total optical system provides a focal length much longer than the actual optical tube body length to yield an awesome imaging scope convenient enough to take out in the backyard or on the road. This advanced design has typically been found only on many higher-end systems often Light path through a Maksutov-Cassegrain used by professionals. Now Bushnell brings this incredible professional optical system to the NorthStar family telescopes.

The CARSON SkySeeker 40-100x60 Telescope w/5x24 Finder Scope (JC-1000) has precision 60mm optics and a 40-100 power range for high-quality imaging. Its 5x24mm finder scope makes it a snap to "zero-in" on your subject.

This telescope is supplied with deluxe aluminum tripod.

The GALILEO 1100x102mm Catadioptric Telescope (FS102DX) has 1100mm optical telescope assembly with 102mm aperture.

This Galileo telescope features elevated mars eye finderscope, metal helical rack & pinion focuser, adkustable primary mirror, adjustable cradle, 6.8mm/16mm eyepieces, 3x barlow lens, erect image prism (for land viewing), counterweight tool and vertical looking knob.

The unit comes with pre-assembled metal tripod with level bubble and compass, accessory tray and Gallileo Planetarium software with instructional video.

The GALILEO 600 x 50mm Refractor Telescope (CCJRME) is the perfect starter telescope for children interested in the stars and planets. It also makes a great telescope for someone who needs to save space or cannot have a large cumbersome telescope.

The 600x50mm Refractor Telescope comes with a 360 degrees rotating focus housing and a carrying case. This makes a Galileo Refractor telescope the perfect tool for helping young children about the universe. In no time at all you or your youngster will be exploring the universe, learning about the rings of Saturn and the moons of Jupiter.

Designed with the young beginner in mind the Galileo refractor telescope still comes with all that you would expect from a Galileo telescope. With a 50mm air-spaced achromatic objective, and multi-coated optics the Galileo CC-JRME refractor telescope, like all Galileo telescopes is built with "The Galileo Difference" so you know that quality optics is what you will be getting.

All of these features ensure that you will have all you ever need to observe the world around you just as Galileo did with the GALILEO 600 x 50mm Refractor Telescope.

The GALILEO 720x80mm Astro/Terrestrial Telescope (FS720DX) has 720mm optical telescope assembly with 80mm multicoated objective lens.
