Astronomical telescope featuring a mirror with a diameter of 80 mm and a focal length of 900 mm. Night sky observation is possible both through the traditional eyepiece or by using a smartphone screen (smartphone not included). To view the sky via smartphone, place your device in the dedicated holder and open the StarSense Explorer app which employs LISA sky identification technology—analyzing star arrangements to determine the telescope’s location. Upon picking a celestial target, directional arrows are displayed on the phone screen, guiding the user directly toward the selected object for fast and intuitive tracking of astronomical bodies.
All optical elements are treated with FC (Fully Coated) coatings to enhance image contrast and light throughput. This allows for the observation of extremely fine details on the Moon, planets, and deep-sky objects such as galaxies or nebulae. The primary mirrors are crafted from optical glass characterized by low thermal expansion, ensuring high-quality images even under fluctuating environmental temperatures.
A solid azimuth mount guarantees stability, accompanied by precision adjustment knobs enabling smooth and controlled movement.
Included in the package:
- Explorer LT 80AZ telescope,
- 25 mm and 10 mm eyepieces,
- 90-degree diagonal mirror (1.25”),
- 2x Barlow lens (1.25”),
- StarPointer finder,
