Description
The AC 120/1000 Telescope:
This telescope offers formidable optics and exceptional resolution, ideal for intricate planetary observation. With its 120mm aperture, this achromatic refractor stands as one of the larger examples in its category among amateur telescope designs. Featuring an aperture ratio of f8.3, it effectively corrects most chromatic aberrations, providing high-contrast images crucial for planetary study. Key details, such as Mars' polar ice caps or Jupiter's Great Red Spot, become vividly visible, allowing for an immersive journey through the solar system. Additionally, numerous deep-sky objects, like the Ring Nebula or the distant globular cluster M13, come into view. With 293 times more light gathering capacity than the naked eye, it unveils celestial wonders otherwise unseen. Compared to a 100mm telescope, it captures 44% more light. Equipped with a 2-inch focuser featuring a 1.25-inch reducing adapter, it accommodates both eyepiece sizes. Utilizing a 2-inch eyepiece maximizes the field of view, enhancing observation of extended deep sky objects.
The Advantages Summarized:
Formidable refractor
High-contrast, low chromatic aberration images
2-inch focuser
Well-suited for astrophotography
Prism rail for swift optics mounting
Finder scope
Visually striking, the OTA boasts an elegant design with a shimmering black metallic finish, complementing its functionality.
The NEQ-3 Pro GoTo Mount:
An evolution of the EQ-3 Pro mount, the NEQ-3 Pro GoTo Mount sports a sleek white design. Providing a sturdy base for most medium-sized telescopes, it's perfect for celestial exploration. Polar elevation adjustment is facilitated by a fine scale and two screws, with the option to retrofit a polar finder. Fully motorized in both axes and equipped with a SynScan hand control box, it offers complete GoTo functionality, suitable for both visual observation and entry-level astrophotography. With practice, successful imaging of galaxies and nebulae becomes achievable.
