Meade Polaris 114mm Telescope
The Meade Polaris 114 mm telescope is a high-quality instrument for observing solar system objects and deep space. This model is a mirror telescope, therefore it gives a bright image, completely free from chromatic aberrations. The telescope is ideal for country observations. The Meade Polaris 114 mm telescope comes with three eyepieces: 6.3 mm, 9 mm and 25 mm. In addition, the kit includes a Barlow lens, so the telescope already provides a wide magnification range as standard. The red dot finder allows you to quickly find the astronomical object you are interested in. The telescope tube is mounted on the mount using a dovetail mount. A reinforced equatorial mount makes it possible to compensate for the daily movement of objects. To move the pipe smoothly, fine movement mechanisms are used; additionally, motor drives can be installed. The steel tripod securely holds the entire structure and ensures a stable position of the telescope.
