Description
Featuring 33% more light-gathering capabilities than the 130P, and the same optics as the more expensive 150P EQ3-2, this ultra-compact telescope represents remarkable value for money.
A simple ready to go telescope straight out the box. No need to put the mount together
as it's already done.
At only 33 inches high fully extended, suitable for placing on a tabletop or viewing while sitting on a low chair.
The flextube design collapses when not in use, so it can be easily stored away or placed on the back seat of a car.
An open tube body makes for easy access for blowing the dust off both mirrors.
The 150mm (6") f5 mirror is perfect for rich field star clusters, nebula and galaxies from dark sky areas. Also very capable of looking at craters on the Moon, the rings around Saturn plus the Moons and some cloud features on Jupiter. Venus will show its phases when in view.
As it is a reflector, the image will be upside down
