Levenhuk Skyline PLUS 115S Telescope - LEVENHUK
The Levenhuk Skyline PLUS 115S telescope is a short focal length Newtonian reflector for deep sky exploration. Thanks to the large aperture, it collects a lot of light and allows the observation of even faint stars. It is excellently effective for observing nebulae, galaxies, star clusters and other objects located beyond the limits of the Solar System. Observing planets is still possible, but it is an instrument designed for open space observation.
The Levenhuk Skyline PLUS 115S telescope is a short focal length Newtonian reflector for deep sky exploration. Thanks to the large aperture, it collects a lot of light and allows the observation of even faint stars. It is excellently effective for observing nebulae, galaxies, star clusters and other objects located beyond the limits of the Solar System. Observation of planets is still possible, but it is an instrument designed for the observation of open space.
The kit includes two eyepieces, both with low magnification power, optimal for the study of celestial bodies of great extension. If necessary, you can purchase additional short focal length eyepieces and increase the magnification up to 228x. The telescope's optics allow for high-magnification observations.
The telescope tube is anchored to an equatorial mount, which simplifies locating and tracking astronomical objects. The operation of the telescope is simple and the movement of the optical tube is smooth and constant. The mount is attached to an aluminum tripod. Equipped with an accessory tray, the tripod has height-adjustable legs. The telescope is therefore very stable and easily adaptable to the observer's height.
