Discovery Spark 769 EQ is a Newtonian reflector with a spherical mirror that is perfect for beginners who want to explore deep sky objects: nebulae, clusters and distant galaxies. Thanks to this telescope you can see many of these objects and others from the Messier catalogue. Nearby space, that is, the Moon and the planets of the solar system, can also be observed. The full color book «Space. Non-empty emptiness will help you refresh your astronomy knowledge and explore the night sky.
The optical tube of the Discovery Spark 769 EQ telescope is operated manually using an equatorial mount with slow motion control. It allows you to easily follow objects in the sky without losing sight of them. It's a feature that people looking to get into astrophotography will appreciate. The glass optics of the telescope have a special anti-reflective coating, which significantly improves light transmission and therefore image quality. The celestial bodies are seen clearly and sharply.
A sturdy aluminum tripod will help you stabilize the telescope at the selected viewing location. The height of the tripod can be adjusted for each user. The accessory tray in the center contains spare eyepieces, mounts, etc. Everything you may need for viewing is already included.
