Levenhuk Skyline Travel 50 Telescope
The optical tube of Levenhuk Skyline Travel 50 is two times shorter than that of most other refractors. The weight of the structure is reduced as much as possible, while all optical capabilities are retained. Therefore, this telescope is perfect for out-of-town observations—even a child can travel with it. The pipe rests on an alt-azimuth mount and an aluminum tripod. The mount is easy to operate; to aim at objects, you just need to move it in height and azimuth. The height of the tripod legs is adjustable, which allows you to quickly adapt the telescope to the height of the observer. Levenhuk Skyline Travel 50 will be a real find for a traveler. It is light and compact and comes with a backpack for transportation. An important advantage of this telescope over analogues is its rich set of equipment. You will have everything you need for observations immediately after opening the box. Eyepieces, Barlow lens, diagonal mirror - you don't have to buy anything else. The telescope will perform well in any astronomical and ground-based observations. It transmits a clear and contrasting image across the entire field of view and does not distort the geometry of objects. The telescope will be a real boon for the traveler. It is light and compact, and a backpack for transportation is already included in the package.
