Levenhuk Skyline BASE 80T is a classic reflector much appreciated by beginner astronomers. Create clear and detailed images of space objects. You will be able to observe lunar craters larger than 5 km in diameter, study the seas and polar caps on Mars, observe the phases of Mercury, the moons of Saturn and distant Jupiter. The telescope is not as powerful for deep sky observations, but will allow you to observe some nebulae, bright star clusters and galaxies. Levenhuk Skyline BASE 80T is an excellent choice as a first telescope and will help you learn the basics of astronomical observation and many mysteries of space.
All optical elements are made of coated glass. They do not fog up over time, they transmit an image of high brightness and contrast and, above all, they transmit a detailed image even at the highest possible power. The kit includes two eyepieces to get the best quality image. One eyepiece is useful for studying groups of objects (for example, moons of planets) and the other is suitable for exploring planets and the Moon. A mirror diagonal will help study terrestrial landscapes and correct the inverted image common in modern telescopes.
The Levenhuk Skyline BASE 80T is designed especially for beginners and is mounted on a classic altazimuth mount. This easy-to-use mount requires no special skills or knowledge. A mount is easily attached to an aluminum tripod. You can attach an accessory tray (included in the kit) onto a tripod with adjustable legs.
