Hi hbrow05,

This Celestron eyepiece has a 23 mm focal length giving you a slightly lower power view than your 20mm eyepiece. I am guessing your eyepieces are plossls?

However the real benefit of this eyepiece is the Ultra Wide Angle (UWA) 82 degrees field of view. This gives you a feeling of "space walking", or as I like to say "falling into the telescope" as the 82 degrees is so wide that you are immersed in stars.

Cheers

James
