Description
Compact high-magnification observation begins with the Celestron N 127/1000 Powerseeker 127 EQ Telescope, a 127 mm Jones-Bird Newtonian reflector with a 1000 mm focal length and listed f/7.87 optical ratio. Its CG-1 manual German equatorial mount uses setting circles and flexible slow-motion rods, while the aluminum optical tube, 20 mm erect-image eyepiece, 4 mm eyepiece, 3x Barlow lens, 5×24 finder, tripod, counterweight, and accessory tray create a complete visual astronomy package.
The internal corrector lens forms part of the focuser arrangement in this compact Newtonian configuration, allowing the long focal length to fit inside a relatively short optical tube. The supplied mount is entirely manual, so users position and track targets through the equatorial axes without GoTo electronics or automatic motorized movement, while the optical format is intended for lunar, planetary, cluster, and selected deep-sky observation.
