BRESSER Messier AR-102L/1350 Optical Tube with EXOS-2/EQ5 Goto Mount

NEW - now includes a high quality sunscreenFor safe observation of sunspots, eclipses and planetary transits. A high quality telescope fornight and solar observation.

Thanks to thehigh quality mechanicsFromBRESSER Messier AR-102LYou can take pictures of the moon with this equipment, and traversing the line of shadow and light (terminator) on the moon is a pleasure. Ambitious beginners and advanced observers alike can observe with thisplanetary telescopeNowthe finest surface detailsOn Jupiter, Saturn, Mars and our terrestrial moon. Discover cloud structures and the Great Red Spot on Jupiter, the icy polar cap of Mars or even Cassini's division of Saturn's rings.

Thanks to theparticularly long focal length setting of f/13.2, this telescope is especially suitable for observing planets.High increasesCan also be achieved with affordable eyepieces that still offer a reasonable distance between the eye and the eyepiece. The viewing comfort is therefore significantly better than with refractors of short focal lengths.

In addition, these special refractor telescopes not only offer avery high color purity and sharpness, but also aplastic or even three-dimensional image of the planets.

In theBRESSER EXOS-2Smaller optics are stably mounted. Gone are the days when price-conscious customers found it difficult to get into astronomy due tomountsUndersized. The EXOS-2 with robuststeel tripodSupports the optics on offer up to a weight of13 kgFor stable and wobble-free visual observation.

Mount, tripodYcontrollerWithcomputer.
This German mount is equipped with tracking motors on both axes, which can accurately track and position astronomical objects. The controller with GoTo function controls the mount precisely and reliably. Precision gears on both axes allow operation with minimal backlash at all nine possible speeds. The battery pack (12 V) is conveniently attached to the accessory tray and contains 8 "D" size batteries. The mount includes a solid steel tube tripod with high stability and supports optical tubes weighing up to 13 kg. ThegoTo systemMakes skywatching simple at the push of a button!
With the system Bresser Startracker GoTo, even an interested beginner can observe celestial objects in a few minutes, which without GoTo would be difficult or impossible to find! Simplyat the push of a button, the GoTo system searches for planets, nebulae or galaxies for you and positions your telescope automatically. The GoTo system database has countless celestial objects ready for you. Observe celestial objects with a Messier series telescope with the GoTo system without time-consuming searches, or photograph faint objects that you would not be able to reach with classical search methods.
