JUPITER THROUGH CELESTRON TELESCOPE FREE
The barlows have an apochromatic lens design for sharp high contrast images free of false colour. To compliment the X-Cel LX eyepieces Celestron also offer an X-Cel LX 2x and 3x barlow which will double/triple the magnification of a 1.25" eyepiece.
Their 1.25” barrels are threaded to accept filters which can help with observing some of the features on these planets. Each eyepiece has 16mm of eye relief making them good for glasses-wearers.
They are available in focal lengths from a very short 2.3mm up to 25mm and feature twist up/down rubber eyeguards to get your eye placed for comfortable viewing. For viewing these and other planets and our Moon, Celestron's X-Cel LX 6-element fully multi-coated 60° apparent field of view eyepieces are ideal. To see detail on Jupiter and Saturn you need a telescope as well as eyepieces giving a magnification of ~120-150x+. Its amazing to think that its rings are only about 1km thick! There is Jupiter with its larger-than-Earth sized Great Red Spot, belts and its 4 main moons Saturn of course has its majestic ring system on show. Now is a good time to observe our large gas-giant neighbours before they start getting lower in the western sky early in 2022. We just thought not long ago it was the early morning when we could see them. We were walking home from the village shop last night and looking up the sky was beautifully crisp and clear - and it was cold! Its been a while since we had clear sky and it was amazing to see how far Jupiter and Saturn were in the sky given it was not long since the Sun had set.
