Product Info for Celestron Firstscope 114 EQ Short First Telescope 31041
This version of the 4 1/2" Newtonian Celestron Telescope offers more portability than the standard longer tube Newtonian without sacrificing power or performance.![]()
The short tube of Celestron Firstscope 114 EQ Short First Telescope 31041 is only 18" long and has a built-in correction lens, giving it all the focal length of the standard 114 EQ Telescope model-31044, while reducing aberrations.
The equatorial mount is quite stable, with setting circles and slow motion controls on both axes for easy, smooth tracking.
