The National Geographic 114mm reflector telescope with equatorial mount is a beginner astronomy telescope built for deep-sky viewing and learning the sky properly. A reflector telescope uses a curved mirror to gather light, and at 114mm this Newtonian pulls in enough to show the Moon, planets, and brighter deep-sky objects. Its equatorial (EQ) mount is designed to follow the sky's motion smoothly on one axis — a great way to learn how objects track across the night.

With a short 500mm focal length (f/4.4), it gives wide, bright, easy-to-find views, while the EQ mount with slow-motion controls lets you keep objects centered as they drift.

Who it's for

Great for beginners ready to learn an equatorial mount while enjoying capable 114mm views of the Moon, planets, and deep sky. New to the hobby? See our guide on how to pick your first telescope.

Key features

  • 114mm reflector optics for bright views of the Moon, planets, and deep sky.
  • Equatorial mount with slow-motion controls to track the sky smoothly.
  • Short 500mm focal length (f/4.4) for wide, easy-to-find fields.
  • Included eyepieces and finder to get you observing out of the box.
  • A great learning platform for understanding how the sky moves.

What you'll see

The 114mm reflector shows the Moon's craters and seas in detail, the phases of Venus, Jupiter's cloud belts and four bright moons, and Saturn's rings. Its wide field is well suited to bright star clusters, the Orion Nebula, and rich Milky Way star fields from darker skies, with the EQ mount helping you keep them in view.

Frequently asked questions

What is an equatorial mount?
It's a mount aligned to Earth's axis so you can follow the sky's motion smoothly on one axis using slow-motion controls — great for tracking objects as they drift.

Is it harder to use than a simple mount?
There's a small learning curve to aligning an EQ mount, but it teaches valuable skills and makes tracking objects easier once set up.

What will it show?
The Moon in detail, the brighter planets and their features, plus star clusters and brighter nebulae.
