NEW: now includes a high-quality solar filter for the objective lens, which allows for safe observation of sunspots, eclipses, and planetary transits. A high-quality telescope for observing the Sun and the night sky.
The MESSIER NT-203/1200 allows for observations that were not possible just a few years ago in this price category. The NT-203/1200, with its longer focal length and minimal obstruction, offers even better sharpness and contrast in planetary observation. The latest production technology makes it possible to track the shadow of Jupiter's moons on the planets; the abundance of structures and details on Jupiter's surface is spectacular. However, the MESSIER NT-203/1200 doesn't only excel at planetary observation: discover structures in distant galaxies and be fascinated by the misty wisps of nebulous emissions in the vastness of the Milky Way. With the MESSIER NT-203/1200, see the remnants of giant star explosions and observe the origin of new stars. Let the beauty of the universe surprise you with this new, larger-than-average device!
Please note that "Newtonian" type reflecting telescopes are very good for astronomical observations of the starry sky, but are not suitable for nature and landscape observations during the day. Therefore, we recommend BRESSER refracting telescopes for observing nature and landscape.
