The Levenhuk Skyline BASE 120S is a classic Newtonian reflector that is ideal for deep space observation. You can observe a large number of nebulae, double stars, globular and open clusters, galaxies, all Messier objects and some objects from the NGC catalog. You can also observe the Moon and the planets of the Solar System. The telescope is designed for beginner astronomers and requires no previous experience with advanced optical systems.

You can also observe the Moon and the planets of the Solar System. The telescope is designed for beginning astronomers and requires no previous experience with advanced optical systems.
The 114 mm diameter main mirror transmits sharp, clear and detailed images. The kit supplied with the telescope includes two basic eyepieces. The eyepiece with a short focal length provides 125x magnification, while the eyepiece with a long focal length provides 25x magnification. Another optical accessory is the finder with a magnification of 5x. It is used to precisely aim the optical tube at astronomical objects.
The telescope is easy to operate. The optical tube is mounted on a altazimuth mount that allows it to be moved like a conventional spotting scope, horizontally and vertically. The mount is mounted on a standard tripod. The tripod is made of aluminum and remains stable in position even on an uneven surface. An accessory tray can be mounted on the tripod.
