{"product_id":"levenhuk-new-skyline-plus-130-650p-sq2-telescope","title":"Levenhuk New Skyline PLUS 130\/650P SQ2 Telescope","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Levenhuk New Skyline PLUS 130\/650P SQ2 strikes an ideal balance, offering a wide field of view, a bright image, and a compact size. You can easily take it on a countryside trip by car. The 130mm aperture and 650mm focal length are enough not only for studying the Moon’s surface but also for finding star clusters, nebulae, and galaxies. Many observers consider these objects the gateway to professional astronomy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEverything for observation is already in the box\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis telescope makes a great gift for yourself or your loved ones for any occasion. The kit already includes all of the necessary optical accessories, an equatorial mount with manual control, and a sturdy steel tripod. Just assemble the telescope, point the right ascension axis at Polaris, choose an eyepiece, and you are ready to observe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptical capabilities\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe telescope comes with SUPER 25mm and 10mm eyepieces that provide magnifications of 26x and 65x, respectively. What you see and how much detail you get depends on which eyepiece you choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 26x magnification, you see the whole Moon at once. Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars appear as bright white, yellow, and orange dots with hints of their disks. The 25mm eyepiece is best for observing star clusters like the Pleiades. They look like brilliant sparks scattered across a black background. The Andromeda Galaxy appears as a large, fuzzy, oval cloud with a bright core. The Orion Nebula looks like a hazy patch around a chain of stars known as the Trapezium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 65x magnification, much more detail appears. On the Moon, you can see craters as small as 3 km to 5 km across, including famous ones like Copernicus, Plato, and Aristarchus. You can also see valleys in the lunar Alps and rays from the Tycho crater. Equatorial belts become clearly visible on Jupiter’s disk, while Saturn reveals its rings with the Cassini Division on steady nights. The 10mm eyepiece is perfect for studying double stars, allowing you to see Albireo, Mizar, and Alcor resolve into individual stars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMain advantages of the system\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first advantage is the parabolic primary mirror. It focuses light rays perfectly at a single point, which eliminates spherical aberration, improves the visibility of faint objects, and adds extra sharpness to the image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe second advantage is the collimation screws built into the design. They allow you to quickly and effortlessly adjust the mirrors periodically to keep the image consistently sharp. This feature is especially useful if you plan to take the telescope on frequent nature trips. Even a smooth car ride can misalign the optical elements. The collimation screws help you fix such issues in no time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe EQ mount compensates for Earth’s daily rotation. You can easily keep an object in view as it moves across the sky.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe telescope is ready to use right after unpacking. Accessories, mount, and tripod are all included.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFind nebulae, galaxies, and star clusters in the sky. Deep space is much closer than it seems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplore the Moon’s surface in fascinating detail. Craters, mountain ranges, and seas will no longer be just pictures in an atlas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe parabolic primary mirror collects and focuses light correctly. Even faint objects become distinguishable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe collimation screws speed up the alignment process.
