Telescope Levenhuk Skyline PLUS 60T

The Skyline PLUS 60T telescope is a classic refractor that will appeal to outer space explorers. It is equipped with an equatorial mount and an expanded set of optical accessories; even a user with demanding needs will appreciate this telescope. You will be able to observe the phases of Venus, the planetary ring of Jupiter, the rings of Saturn and lunar craters whose diameter is larger than 8 km. The outer boundary of the Solar System is less visible, but can be discerned. The telescope is designed for beginning astronomers.

The lenses, made of fully coated glass, transmit a detailed, aberration-free image. An equatorial mount is used to operate the telescope. It can be used for astronomical observations of the starry sky. The rapid transit of Mercury and the planets around the Sun are visible, as well as the International Space Station orbiting the Earth. Learning to control the equatorial mount takes some time, but you will soon appreciate its advantages. A 5x optical finder helps you find celestial objects.

The telescope is mounted on a sturdy, height-adjustable aluminum tripod. It stays firmly in place, even on uneven surfaces, will not sway in high wind conditions, and supports the telescope with a mount and counterweight. The kit includes an accessory tray that easily attaches to the tripod.

The kit includes optical accessories that allow you to start making observations right away. Three eyepieces are provided, which you can interchange to quickly get the right magnification for observing different astronomical objects, while a diagonal mirror helps you observe terrestrial objects. Like all telescopes, the Levenhuk Skyline PLUS 60T telescopes produce an inverted image that is not suitable for terrestrial observations. The diagonal mirror corrects this effect and produces an image with the normal orientation.
