The Levenhuk Discovery Spark Travel 60 telescope budding astronomer. The refractor is seen in a colorful gift box which, in addition to the telescope itself, contains all the necessary accessories such as a tripod, a carrying case and the educational book “Space. Empty non-empty”. This colorful illustrated guide offers numerous useful information on the night sky, which allows you to create a good theoretical education before proceeding with observations.
The Levenhuk Discovery Spark Travel 60 model offers good performance for studying the lunar surface and observing terrestrial objects during the day. The brightest objects in interplanetary and outer space can be seen as bright points. The telescope lenses are made of optical glass with anti-reflection treatment, which improves image quality and sharpness. In addition, the optics are achromatic and therefore no chromatic aberration can interfere with image formation.
The telescope's optical tube is housed on a simple altazimuth fork mount to allow movement along the axes of height and azimuth. There is a lock knob for smoother and more accurate adjustment. This telescope can be easily assembled and set up by users of any skill level. The tripod is made of aluminum and has a tray in the center. The tray compartments are useful for positioning accessories, of which the kit is well supplied: 4 eyepieces, a mirror diagonal and a powerful 3x Barlow lens.
