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.

Optical Performance
76mm aperture is ideal for lunar and planetary viewing
Fast f/4 focal ratio ensures images are bright
Short 300mm focal length yields lower magnifications for wide fields of view to complement the manual AZ mount
Newtonian reflector design produces a longer effective focal length than the physical length of the optical tube to ensure a compact form factor
