NEW - now including a high-quality objective solar filter for safe observation of sunspots, eclipses, and planetary transits. A high-quality telescope for night and solar observation.
Ambitious beginners and advanced observers will find the brightest objects outside the solar system with this device. Discover structures in the Orion Nebula at an incredible distance of 1500 light-years (14,200,000,000,000 km). Exploring the terminator on the moon is a pleasure. You won't want to stop using the MESSIER AR-102xs.
As a compact travel device, the MESSIER AR-102xs is very useful. The very short focal length of only 460 mm allows for impressive wide-field observations of open clusters and the Milky Way. Only by using special ED glass were we able to make this very luminous device. It offers extraordinarily high image quality with very little chromatic aberration at an attractive price.
EXOS-2 Mount and Tripod. The entry-level segment of the BRESSER Messier series. On the BRESSER EXOS-2, smaller optics are stably mounted. The days when price-conscious customers found it difficult to enter astronomy due to undersized mounts are over. The EXOS-2 with its robust stainless steel tripod holds the offered optics up to a weight of 13 kg stably and wobble-free for visual observations. For even more comfort during observation, the mount can be upgraded with a motor set for the RA axis and the DEC axis. This way, you will always have the celestial object in the eyepiece, without having to manually move the telescope following the movement of the stars.
