Antares 130mm / 650mm EQ Reflector Telescope
Koolpte Antares is a 130mm / 650mm Newtonian reflector telescope for adult beginners, teens, and growing astronomy hobbyists who want more light-gathering power and more room to explore beyond a basic starter refractor. Its larger aperture and equatorial mount make it a meaningful step up for Moon, planet, star-cluster, and selected deep-sky observation.
130mm Aperture for Brighter Views
The 130mm primary mirror gathers substantially more light than smaller beginner telescopes, helping reveal brighter lunar detail and more rewarding views of planets, star clusters, and selected nebulae or other bright deep-sky targets under suitable skies.
650mm Newtonian Reflector Design
The 650mm focal length provides a useful balance between wider-field viewing and higher-power observation. As a reflector, Antares is designed around strong light-gathering performance rather than the compact simplicity of a small refractor.
Equatorial Mount for Manual Tracking
The included EQ mount is designed to help you follow celestial targets more deliberately as they move across the sky. It takes more learning than a simple altazimuth mount, but gives growing hobbyists a more astronomy-focused control system.
26× to 200× Viewing Combinations
The included 25mm eyepiece provides 26× magnification and the 6.5mm eyepiece provides 100×. The included 2× Barlow lens expands those combinations to 52× and 200×. Begin at lower power to locate and focus the target before increasing magnification.
Smartphone Adapter and Wireless Remote
Use the included smartphone adapter and wireless remote to practice capturing the Moon and other bright targets through the eyepiece while reducing shake from touching the phone.

Finderscope
Reflex finderscope helps align the telescope and locate bright targets before using the main eyepiece.
Deep-Sky Potential
The larger 130mm aperture gathers more light than smaller beginner refractors, supporting brighter views of star clusters and selected deep-sky objects under darker skies.
Phone Photography Kit
Smartphone adapter + wireless remote for simple Moon and bright-target captures through the eyepiece.
Tripod & Control
Tripod-based EQ setup designed for astronomy-focused manual positioning and tracking.

ANTARES 130/650 EQ
Learn the mount first, then unlock the aperture.
Antares is a more astronomy-focused setup than the Vega refractors. Start at low power, learn how the EQ mount moves, and build confidence before increasing magnification.

With a powerful 130mm reflector design, Antares delivers brighter views, higher detail, and greater exploration potential for the Moon, planets, and deep-sky objects.
A first serious reflector for growing observers
Who is this telescope for?
Best suited to adult beginners, teens, and upgraders who are ready to learn an equatorial mount and want more light-gathering power than a basic starter telescope.
Questions beginners ask before buying
Is Antares 130/650 a good first telescope?
It can be, especially for an adult beginner or teen who is willing to learn an equatorial mount. It is more involved than the Vega refractors but offers a larger 130mm aperture.
What can I see with a 130mm reflector?
The Moon and bright planets are excellent targets. Under darker skies, the larger aperture also improves the experience of bright star clusters and selected deep-sky objects.
What magnification should I start with?
Begin with the 25mm eyepiece at 26×. Learn to locate, center, focus, and track the target before moving to 100× or adding the 2× Barlow.
Why does the EQ mount take more practice?
An equatorial mount is designed around the motion of the sky rather than simple up/down and left/right pointing. A short practice session at low power makes the movement much easier to understand.
Can I use my phone for photos?
Yes. Use the included smartphone adapter and wireless remote. Start with the Moon because it is bright and easier to center.
