The CELESTRON entry-level telescopes of the POWERSEEKER series are a great way to open the door to the wonders of the Universe for the aspiring astronomer. The POWERSEEKER series has been designed to offer the first-time astronomer the best combination of quality, price, performance and power.

Amateur astronomy is a great family hobby and can be enjoyed all year round, and CELESTRON POWERSEEKERs are the ideal choice for an affordable, good quality telescope to provide many hours of entertainment for the whole family.

CELESTRON POWERSEEKER astronomical telescopes are quick and easy to assemble - even for a beginner. No tools are required for assembly!

Their sturdy equatorial mount is perfect for tracking objects in the night sky (the versions of the POWERSEEKER series that come with an altazimuth tripod are excellent for terrestrial and astronomical observing).

All CELESTRON POWERSEEKER telescope models include a full range of eyepieces and a 3x barlow that provides an increase in magnification power of several hundred times compared to naked eye observing!!

POWERSEEKERs are designed and manufactured using fully treated optical glass with high transmission coatings to enhance image brightness and clarity.

In addition, you can locate and identify thousands of celestial objects from your laptop or PC with the free "TheSkyX®" FirstLight Edition software, which is included with all POWERSEEKER models.
