I have a celestron astromaster 114 reflector telescope, and will this eyepiece let me see nebulae?

This is a great eyepiece, I am very happy with it. However, I didn't try to observe nebulae, since my telescope isn't that strong. I think that will depend on your telescope capabilities and sky conditions. The eyepiece, like I said, is really very good. Hope this helps. Bayard

I find my Celestron X-C LX Series useful when used on my C6. It has an adjustment range from 8mm to 24mm. I use it in place of 25mm and 9 mm lenses when working on a mount that is not clock driven. It allows me to switch from low magnification to high magnification without changing eyepieces. It should work satisfactorily for viewing nebule if your skies are reasonably dark. I was able to observe a number of nebula with a 3.5 inch reflector. My skies were relatively dark.

You will need a 0.965"-to-1.25" Orion Telescope Eyepiece Adapter to make this work. The cost is $22.99 plus tax and shipping.

Celestine has its own adapter specific to telescope devices so you might want to check on the Celestine site first. Outside of that a 1.25 inch standard eyepiece will work fine although my wide field of view 52mm erffle barely fits.

I assume you are asking about the orion scope vs the celestron scope? I've no experience with the orion st, there's a comparison on cloudy nights' user forum. There is a lot of info there. I beive that is where I found a write up on what to expect from various size optics and focal lengths. I'm still happy with the astromaster. It has pretty good optics, but as many people have pointed out, the mount is a little flimsy.

I can't answer your question about the Celestron Binoculars but can tell you that the diameter of the mounting tube on the Orion StarShoot is 1 1/4" and therefore is the same as a 1 1/4" telescope eypepiece. Sorry I couldn't help more.

I could not get my Celestron XCel series 2X Barlow to focus. It was way beyond the focuser's travel and others have noted this but apparently Orion's Shorty 2X Barlow will work with this telescope as well as GSO 2x barlow from Agena AstroProducts. The useful magnification on this telescope is 200X but that is probably counting on optimum conditions. For planetary views with average conditions with a 100mm telescope, magnification of 100X to 120X are probably expected to be the clearest.

You will need a T-adapter as well as tne Celestron 93230 8 to 24mm 1.25 Zoom Eyepiece (this eyepiece is the only eyepiece that allows you to focus and change the focal point for your camera which is mandatory for higher end cameras. Note: This scope is not meant for astrophotography but is still a very nice telescope for the price.

According to your description 1.25" eyepieces will not work in your telescope unless your buy a "hybrid" diagonal. One side will fit inside your 0.965" draw tube while the other side will accept 1.25" eyepieces. OPT Telescopes has an Antares brand adapter for $29.95 plus shipping. It looks like a reasonably well-built product and comes with a two-year warranty. Here is a link: http://www.optcorp.com/ae-msdh-965inch-to-1-25inch-hybrid-mirror-diagonal.html Agena Astro Products also has it but is currently out-of-stock. Agena Astro Products also carries a hybrid diagonal from GSO that is available for $32.00 plus free shipping. The link to this product is: http://agenaastro.com/gso-0-965-1-25-90-hybrid-mirror-star-diagonal.html

I guess you could. My question is why not buy an adaptor to attach to your telescope so it (the telescope) can track the stars and planets when they are at zenith?

Yes. It will work. I've done it also with a cheap Celestron telescope. You may need a "C" adapter to fit your specific camera. Give it a try and see what you get!

It depends mostly on your sky conditions. I have been able to see realy wonderful details of globular and open clusters even just through my 15 x 70 Celestron binoculars as long as I went out to the desert skies of Arizona. However, if I bring out my telescopes in the DC area where I live, I am lucky to be able to see Messier objects at all.

Yes. It will work with any reflector that takes 1.25 inch eyepieces. I believe that the telescope in question does take 1.25 inch eyepieces.

I'd suggest you just call Celestron and ask them. They're friendly and helpful, and then you'd know for sure.

the focus range on this insturment is verry small,I dont believe it will focus,some of my fixed eyepieces will not focus.Hence not enough travel of the prosm.

No, it probably won't :( It's a great beginner telescope and I have seen some amazing things with in the sky - like the rings of Saturn. Alas, it is not very good for looking at things on the earth because it flips everything upside down - which we don't notice much when looking at moon craters or Saturn's wings. If you want a telescope to help look at things on the lake, there is a different style (reflective, I think) that will be better ... or get a really nice pair of binoculars. My in-laws live on a lake in Texas and we use binoculars. :) Hope this helps

It should as all but the cheapest telescopes use 1 1/4" eyepieces. Check your existing eyepiece to confirm as Celestron does not actually list the size.

Yes it will! It will work on an telescope that accepts 1.25" eyepieces. I have a 114eq and this tool is perfect!
