Explore the night sky using the 8x56 SkyMaster DX Binoculars from Celestron. This waterproof and fully multi-coated optic is specifically designed for those tasks and possesses two distinct characteristics that set them apart from many other binoculars and make them a good fit for the purpose: first are their wide 56mm objective apertures that allow a lot of light and delivers good visibility in low-light conditions; second are their 8x magnification power that enables you to have good close-ups of the moon and stars without introducing much image jitter from shaking hands. These binoculars have a configuration that allows you to observe celestial objects with both eyes, which is an option that not every telescope has. Also, they are fully assembled and mountable to a tripod using an optional adapter. To ensure that you get clear images, without glare, the lenses are anti-reflection multi-coated. Other highlights of the binoculars are its center focusing, interpupillary adjustment, and diopter corrector. To protect this instrument while not in use, objective lens covers, a rainguard for the eyepieces, and a carry case are included.
