Newtonian telescopes

Need help choosing your first telescope?

Here’s a quick guide to help you make the best choice when buying your first telescope.

In this section, you will find the Newtonian reflector telescope best suited for you or your children. The term Newtonian comes from Isaac Newton, who first developed this optical mirror design. Some models are designed specifically for beginners, while others are ideal for those who already have some experience in astronomy.

All these telescopes are excellent for observing the Moon and the planets of the Solar System, such as Jupiter and Saturn. Larger-aperture models also allow you to observe bright deep-sky objects like star clusters and nebulae.
