Levenhuk Skyline PLUS 130S Telescope
Levenhuk Skyline PLUS 130S is a telescope that will reveal to you the beauty of near and far space. It works best when studying galaxies, double and single stars, nebulae, globular and open clusters, but it also works well for the planets of the Solar System and the Moon. You can see Mars, Venus, Saturn, Jupiter through it, and with good detail. All necessary optical accessories are already included in the package - there is no need to purchase additional ones. The optical tube is mounted on an equatorial mount, which is controlled using fine movement knobs. This type of mount takes time to master, but is great for long-term study of the night sky. Since space objects are constantly moving across the sky, the position of the telescope must be adjusted frequently. An equatorial mount makes this process much easier. A distinctive feature of Levenhuk Skyline PLUS 130S is its rich equipment. It has everything you need for effective observations: two multifocal eyepieces, a 2x Barlow lens, and an optical finder with 6x magnification. Along with the telescope you also receive an aluminum tripod with a tray for accessories. It is durable, reliable and stable. Thanks to the height-adjustable legs, you can place the telescope even on an uneven surface.
