## Long description

The Celestron 21038 118x Black 5 cm refractor telescope is a compact, travel-oriented optical instrument designed for terrestrial viewing and casual astronomical observation. With a 5 cm (50 mm) objective lens and up to 118x magnification, the scope provides clear, correctly oriented views thanks to an erect image diagonal and fully coated glass optics. The package includes a preassembled aluminum tripod and a custom backpack for storage and transport, along with introductory astronomy software to help locate and identify celestial objects.
Advantages
All coated glass optical elements improve light transmission and contrast for crisper images of the Moon, planets and bright deep-sky objects. The erect image diagonal delivers correctly oriented views that are useful for terrestrial observation as well as astronomy. A smooth altazimuth mount enables intuitive pointing and tracking of targets, while the preassembled aluminum tripod provides a stable platform without complex setup. The included custom backpack and no-tool assembly make this telescope easy to transport and deploy in the field. Software with a 10,000-object database helps plan observing sessions and print sky maps.

Use the smooth altazimuth controls to point at the target and adjust focus until the image is sharp. Start with a low-power eyepiece to locate objects, then switch to higher magnification up to 118x for closer views. Use the included software to identify targets and plan observing sessions; printable sky maps can assist with navigation of the night sky.
Usage recommendations
For best viewing results, allow the telescope to reach ambient temperature before observing and set up away from direct artificial lights. Begin with the lowest magnification to locate objects, then increase magnification as seeing conditions allow. Use the erect image diagonal for upright terrestrial views, and store the telescope in the provided backpack to protect optics and mount during transport.
