Levenhuk Skyline Travel 80 Telescope
Levenhuk Skyline Travel 80 Telescope is a small and high-aperture refractor with coated optics for studying near space and ground-based observations. It will be a good choice for a novice astronomer and is perfect for first amateur observations. Thanks to its simple controls, even a child can handle Levenhuk Skyline Travel 80. The best way to observe the Moon and major planets of the solar system is with the Levenhuk Skyline Travel 80 telescope. It is less suitable for survey observations of deep space, although it quite clearly shows bright galaxies, nebulae and star clusters. We recommend that all observations be made outside city light. Moreover, the lightweight and extremely compact design of the telescope allows you to easily take it with you on any trip. And the carrying and storage bag included in the package contains not only the optical tube, mount and tripod, but also all optical accessories. The package also includes eyepieces, a Barlow lens and a diagonal mirror. Right out of the box you get 132x magnification, which allows you to study lunar craters, Saturn, Mars and the atmospheric phenomena on Jupiter in detail. The telescope will also be a good replacement for a spotting scope, as it transmits an “earthly” (non-inverted) image. Note that the azimuth mount on which the telescope is mounted is easy to learn. The tripod is made of aluminum, and the height of its legs can be adjusted. There is a tray for accessories. And a small compass is built into the optical tube, designed for quick orientation and search for astronomical objects in the sky.
