The National Geographic StarApp114 114mm reflector telescope pairs real astronomical optics with a smartphone astronomy app to make finding objects in the night sky easy for beginners. A reflector telescope uses a curved mirror to gather light, and at 114mm this Newtonian collects enough to show the Moon, planets, and brighter deep-sky objects — while the app helps you point the scope and learn what you're looking at.

With a short 500mm focal length (f/4.4), it delivers wide, bright, easy-to-find views, and the smartphone mount lets you locate targets and even snap photos through the eyepiece.

Who it's for

Perfect for beginners and families who want a capable first telescope with app-guided help finding objects. New to the hobby? See our guide on how to pick your first telescope.
