The National Geographic StarApp70 is a 70mm achromatic refractor telescope specifically designed for beginners and casual stargazers seeking an educational stargazing experience. Its defining feature is integration with the free ARTelescope App, which allows users to mount their smartphone directly to the telescope tube for real-time object identification and audio-enhanced constellation and planetary information. With a 700mm focal length and f/10 focal ratio, this refractor excels at detailed lunar and planetary observation, as well as viewing bright deep-sky objects like star clusters and nebulae. The telescope includes a complete accessory package with two Plossl eyepieces, a 2x Barlow lens for four magnification options, a panhandle alt-azimuth mount for smooth tracking, and a smartphone adapter for capturing images.
