Celestron - AstroMaster LT 70AZ Refractor Telescope - Silver

You can easily see the Andromeda Galaxy, M81 & M82 through the AstroMaster LT 70AZ telescope from a dark sky site. The outer planets such as Uranus and Neptune would appear as a very, very tiny dot if any. You will be able to see Jupiter's four brightest moons and Saturn's rings.

The AstroMaster LT 70AZ refractor telescope will allow you to view boats and marine life; however, it does not come with an erect image diagonal. Images will be seen corrected right-side up, but it will be backwards from left to right–like looking in a mirror.

A tripod is included with the AstroMaster LT 70AZ telescope.

No, there are some differences. While both models are lightweight, portable, easy to set up, have similar apertures, and able to resolve Saturn's rings, Jupiter's four largest moons, the AstroMaster LT 70AZ has a more rugged design and uses a pan handle to point the telescope. The optical tube can easily be removed from the dovetail holder. The PowerSeeker 70AZ is an entry-level model designed for casual observing at an affordable price. The optics are fully coated and will provide clear and sharp views. You can't go wrong with either model.
