Sky-Watcher AC 80/400 StarTravel OTA Telescope

The AC 80/400 Telescope:

Compact and straightforward, the AC 80/400 telescope is designed for both astronomical and terrestrial observation. With its 80mm diameter lens, this telescope offers an affordable gateway to exploring the depths of the universe. Its short focal length categorizes it as a 'rich field' telescope, enabling captivating wide-angle observations. Boasting a higher resolution than its 70mm counterpart, its 1.14 arc seconds resolution ensures enhanced detail during planetary observation. Immerse yourself in seemingly three-dimensional views of celestial wonders like the Andromeda Galaxy or the Orion Nebula, as the expansive field of view makes observing akin to a spacewalk.
