This 130mm Newtonian reflector uses mirrors instead of lenses to gather light, which eliminates color fringing often found in refractors. The large aperture makes it capable of viewing deeper space objects like nebulae and galaxies. It is a more advanced option for adults who want to move beyond basic lunar observation.
The telescope is paired with an equatorial mount, which allows for precise tracking of celestial objects by aligning with the Earth's axis. This mount includes slow-motion controls for smooth adjustments as the stars move. It also comes with a Barlow lens to increase magnification and a moon filter to reduce brightness during full moons.
A smartphone adapter is included, enabling you to take photos of your observations. The 130mm mirror provides a significant jump in light-gathering power compared to smaller models in this catalog. It is a sturdy piece of equipment intended for those who are serious about developing their astronomy skills over time.
