Levenhuk Discovery Spark 114 AZ telescope with book - DISCOVERY
Discovery Channel informs, entertains and inspires its audiences around the world about the wonders of our planet, its diversity and its surprises. Offering millions of people the chance to make new discoveries and satisfy their curiosities, Discovery offers an engaging mix of narratives, across multiple genres: science and technology, exploration, adventure, history and a behind-the-scenes look at people, places and organizations that shape the world we live in.
We are proud to introduce the Discovery line of optical instruments, manufactured by Levenhuk and sponsored by Discovery.
The Levenhuk Discovery Spark 114 AZ is a perfect Newtonian reflector for the study of deep sky objects. You can use it to observe nebulae, star clusters and double stars. It is also suitable for the exploration of celestial bodies within the orbit of Saturn. The telescope is sold accompanied by an illustrated educational book on space. It will become a wonderful guide for budding astronomers, thanks to its ability to bring users closer to the mysteries of the universe.
The optical tube of the Levenhuk Discovery Spark 114 AZ telescope is aimed using an altazimuth fork mount. The mount features a lock knob for precise and smooth vertical movements. The mirror is spherical in shape and the optical elements of the telescope are made of glass with anti-reflection treatment. With a focal length of 900 mm, the telescope is able to “reach” even the dimmest objects in the deep sky and reproduce a clear, sharp and crystalline image.
The mount is installed on a sturdy metal tripod with adjustable legs. An accessory tray can be attached to the center of the tripod. The kit includes eyepieces with various focal lengths and a Barlow lens, which offers the possibility of carrying out observations with different magnifications. If necessary, you can add other accessories to your telescope: the eyepiece barrel has a standard diameter of 1.25" which allows for the installation of numerous additional accessories.
