Celestron 44121 Microscope Kit — 40x to 600x Biological Microscope for Beginners

Unlock tiny worlds with the Celestron 44121 Microscope Kit. This biological microscope covers 40x to 600x magnification, enabling close-up views of cells, insect parts, minerals, and everyday samples. The precision glass optics deliver crisp, bright images, while a straightforward focus system makes exploration approachable for new scientists.

Designed for hands-on learning, this kit pairs clear optics with practical accessories. Observe a honeybee wing, a shrimp sample, or a small rock under bright illumination, and compare prepared slides with blanks to see how preparation affects what you see.

Key features

• Biological microscope with 40x to 600x magnification for a wide viewing range
• 10x to 20x zoom eyepiece with high quality glass optics for crisp detail
• 4x, 15x, 30x objective lenses with premium glass optics
