Description

Levenhuk Skyline BASE 100S is a Newtonian reflector on an alt-azimuth mount. On the one hand, it is a user-friendly optical instrument that is simple to operate even for beginner-level astronomers; on the other hand, it allows you to conduct deep-sky observations. The telescope will be highly appreciated by amateur astronomers who are already familiar with astronomical observations, but who do not yet have enough experience to master a more complex optical device. Levenhuk Skyline BASE 100S is the right choice for those who are willing to dive right into the endless world of nebulae, galaxies, and star clusters.

Although this telescope is designed for deep space observations, you can also use it for viewing the Moon and the planets of the solar system. The kit includes two eyepieces that can be used interchangeably to optimally adjust the optics to different space objects. A 6x optical finderscope allows for pointing an optical tube precisely at the desired areas.

This telescope is equipped with an alt-azimuth mount, so it does not take much time to master it. Levenhuk Skyline BASE 100S is operated as a classic spotting scope by moving an optical tube to the left, right, up, and down. The mount is fixed on a standard tripod made of aluminum and, therefore, it is stable even standing on rough surfaces. The kit comes with an accessory tray. The tripod legs are extendable.

Features:

  • Classic refractor on an alt-azimuth mount
  • Useful and simple operation makes the telescope suitable for beginners
  • An optimal choice for exploring deep-sky objects: observe all Messier objects and the brightest NGC objects
  • You can observe the Solar system planets and the Moon
  • The kit includes eyepieces that show all telescope capabilities

The kit includes:

  • Telescope optical tube
  • Alt-azimuth mount
  • Aluminum tripod with an accessory tray
  • 5x24 optical finder scope
  • SR4mm (175x) eyepiece
  • H20mm (35x) eyepiece
  • User manual and lifetime warranty
