The Astroscan is a wide-field Newtonian reflector telescope produced by the Edmund Scientific Corporation. It was designed by Norman Sperling and Mike Simmons to be used as an introductory telescope. Rather than using a more traditional equatorial or altazimuth mount the Astroscan features a spherical housing around the primary reflector which sits in a cast aluminum cradle. The design is durable and allows for simple operation by novice amateur astronomers; it won an Industrial Design Award in 1976. The telescope body is made from high impact ABS and is equipped with a carrying strap to aid portability.
