Levenhuk Skyline Travel Sun 70 Telescope
Levenhuk Skyline Travel Sun 70 Telescope is a lightweight and easy-to-use refractor with good optical capabilities. It will perform best away from city light. The telescope is perfect for observing the planets of the solar system and the surface of the moon. With minimal illumination and good weather conditions, you can view Messier catalog objects without detail, lunar craters with a diameter of up to 8 km, stars up to 11.5 magnitude. The standard diagonal mirror creates a direct (non-inverted) image, so it is convenient to view ground objects through the telescope. The delivery set includes a solar filter made of thick protective film - the telescope is also suitable for observing sunspots. Be especially careful when observing solar activity and always ensure that the solar filter is securely attached to the telescope tube. The filter must completely cover the aperture! Never look at the Sun or even the bright area of sky next to it through an optical finder. The maximum usable magnification of the telescope is 140x. The extensive set includes 2 eyepieces 67x and 20x and a 3x Barlow lens, solar filter and diagonal mirror. With these optical accessories you can achieve 200x magnification. The telescope is equipped with a 5x24 optical finder. The length of the tube is 40 cm: this makes the telescope very compact. Even a child can master the control of an azimuth mount - the optical device is simply moved along the horizontal and vertical axes using a special handle. The telescope does not require additional setup: just assemble it and adjust the height of the aluminum tripod. The telescope, mount, tripod and all optical accessories can easily fit into a branded backpack (included). With it you can safely go on a trip or just to the nearest park in good weather - look at the Sun.
