## Description

Celestron has joined forces with master lunar imager Robert Reeves on this addition to the beloved FirstScope family: the FirstScope Signature Series: Moon by Robert Reeves. This quality Dobsonian-style telescope features a spherical glass mirror with a generous 76mm of aperture. The FirstScope’s wide field-of-view provides bright, sharp views of the Moon’s mountains and craters in crisp detail. You’ll also enjoy using the FirstScope to pan the Milky Way, explore open star clusters, marvel at Saturn’s rings, or view favourite deep-sky objects like the Orion Nebula. This compact, lightweight telescope is an ideal entry-level astronomical telescope. Just remove it from the box, insert an eyepiece, and you’re ready to view. To navigate the sky, simply rotate the azimuth axis in the direction of your desired object. It doesn’t get much simpler or more portable than the FirstScope. Its compact design makes the FirstScope Signature Series easy to take along on your next camping trip, picnic, or hike. When not in use, the FirstScope Signature Series: Moon by Robert Reeves will be a stylish decorative fixture on your bookshelf or desk. Explore the Moon: Familiarize yourself with the Moon, our neighboring world. Robert Reeves’ signature FirstScope comes with a custom wrap that highlights 10 lunar features to explore including Tycho, Plato, and Copernicus. Learn more about the Moon with Robert Reeves’ Lunar Landscape eBook which goes into detail about the sizes of craters, how marias are formed, the natural history of the Moon, and other fascinating tidbits. About Robert Reeves: Robert Reeves first photographed the Moon in 1959, just as our space program was setting its sights on lunar exploration. Since then, he’s become one of the world’s best lunar imagers and a prolific author on astrophotography. Using Celestron telescopes from his home in Texas, Robert captures more detailed images than professional astronomers could during the heyday of the Apollo missions.

Review: Good as first telescope - Good as a first telescope for the kids
Review: worth adding finderscope. - its great my son loves it, weve both seen good views of Pleiades and the moon with it. recommend a finderscope / laser pointer and some good lenses mid power like a 10mm the 4mm is too much except for the moon

## Questions & Answers

**Q: My 6 year old is interested in astronomy. Would this or the Celestron up close binoculars be better for him?**
A: I bought this for my son when he was 7.  He wasn't able to find things on his own.  If you get it in place, all of my kids are able to look through the telescope and see what it is positioned on.  I believe you will be able to see things closer with this telescope, but your 6 year old will probably need assistance positioning the telescope to see things in the sky.  You will also need a table or something to set it on.

**Q: Can anyone suggest particular eyepieces that would improve this telescope?**
A: Make sure you get the 1.25" diameter eyepieces! Tele Vue brand eyepieces have earned a great reputation for clarity without distortion. A 2x Barlow extension (by Tele Vue or anyone) would double your viewing options. As for regular eyepieces (like a Plossl), higher magnification for distant viewing, lower mag for the moon. Divide telescope focal length (300 mm for this telescope) by the eyepiece in mm to get magnification. So, the 20mm eyepiece gives 300/20 = 15x magnification. The 4mm  gives 300/4 = 75x mag. Add a 2x Barlow extension to those eyepieces gives you the option of 30x and 150x. If you also buy a 30mm Plossl (lower mag for nearer objects), you get 300/30 = 10x mag ... add the 2x Barlow to it and you have 20x mag.

**Q: compare TO CELESTRON FUNSCOPE**
A: The Funscope is an Orion scope (not Celestron). The Orion Funscope generally gets better reviews for better quality optical and lenses.

**Q: I live in NYC. How much will the city lights affect what I can see?**
A: Light pollution definitely affects a lot.  You would be able to get close ups of the moon, and might be able to see faint outlines of the larger planets when they are closest to the earth - but as for any type of deep space viewing (which using this specific scope - I wouldn't think possible), you couldn't do it with such a light polluted area.When I want to really view stars, I take my 8" Dobsonian out camping - even then, I need to take the scope far away from our campfire because the light from the fire distorts viewing to such a large degree.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good as first telescope
*by A***G on 18 March 2026*

Good as a first telescope for the kids

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ worth adding finderscope.
*by M***R on 7 January 2026*

its great my son loves it, weve both seen good views of Pleiades and the moon with it. recommend a finderscope / laser pointer and some good lenses mid power like a 10mm the 4mm is too much except for the moon

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Portable deep sky telescope
*by G***N on 1 September 2025*

Late last night I could see Pegasus and Cassiopeia in the eastern sky, so I knew M31 would be in a good position to view. Too tired after work to set up one of my larger telescopes, I took my Celestron Firstscope 76 outside, put in on a folding table I bought for that purpose and within a few minutes had the pale glow of the core of the Andromeda galaxy in my eyepiece. This is where the Firstscope 76 shows it's strength; wide field views, easy and quick setup and minimal cool down time. Simple and very stable Dobsonian mount makes it a joy to use for Messier objects and asterisms. Highly portable to take to dark sky locations, I never cease to be surprised at how much this small reflector can show. It's definitely not a planetary scope, and I'd recommend purchasing some decent eyepieces and a finder scope, but for lunar full disc and solar (must be equipped with a proper Solar filter!!!), and brighter deep sky objects, it's a good "grab and go" scope.
