Compact Tabletop Telescope for Easy Space Exploration
A compact, optically-fast telescope for astronomers that is easy to transport and simple to operate. It is a so-called 'Dobsonian' telescope. This type of reflecting telescope is very easy for beginners to use and collects a lot of light from astronomical objects.
Three Times More Light for Better Observation
With this telescope featuring a 114 mm aperture, you'll capture three times more light than with a 76 mm telescope. This makes fainter objects visible and allows you to observe more details on the Moon and planets. Despite this, the telescope is very compact and quick to set up, without the need for complicated assembly, making it easy to transport to your favorite dark sky location.
Ready for Immediate Use
This Dobsonian reflector telescope comes fully assembled. It can be simply placed on a table for you to immediately get started with your space exploration. Extensive accessories are provided for getting started as simply and easily as possible with your star-filled fun.
Intuitive and Stable Operation
The telescope is intuitive to use and stable in operation. The built-in accessory tray keeps eyepieces always within reach, and the red dot finder makes locating objects in the night sky easy.
Important Usage Notice
Note: Reflecting telescopes with "Newtonian" optical design are ideal for astronomical observations of the starry sky. However, they are not suitable for observing landscapes and nature during the day. For daytime landscape and nature observation, we recommend refracting (lens-based) telescopes.
