The Skyline BASE 80T telescope allows you to explore outer space in all its diversity. Using this refractor, you can observe lunar craters with a diameter greater than 5 km, Jupiter, Saturn and their moons, and the phases of Mercury. It is also suitable for terrestrial observations. Thanks to the extensive telescope kit, you do not need to purchase additional eyepieces or other optical accessories. It is an excellent gift for beginning astronomers, for whom it will provide many intense emotions.
The telescope lenses are made of glass. The exterior surfaces are protected by an anti-reflective coating that improves image clarity. The optics produce sharp, contrasting images and allow even faint objects to be observed in the starry sky. The telescope is mounted on an easy-to-use altazimuth mount. Even a child could use this telescope: to point the optical tube at the desired position, move the tube along the horizontal or vertical axis. The mount installs easily on an aluminum tripod. It is robust and safe. The tripod legs are adjustable in length. An accessory tray is included that can be attached to the tripod.
The extensive kit delivered with the telescope includes, in addition to the traditional optical finder, two eyepieces with a different focal length and a diagonal mirror. Use these items to quickly prepare the telescope for different observations. The eyepiece with a long focal length allows you to explore a large area of the sky (a planet and its moons), the eyepiece with a short focal length is useful for making detailed observations of the planets or the lunar surface. The diagonal mirror is essential in terrestrial observations.
