Bresser Telescope N 130/1000 Messier OTA (21612)

If you are looking for a telescope that offers excellent light-gathering capabilities for its price, the Newtonian 130 is a great option. With its 130 mm aperture, this classic reflector provides 30% more light than the typical 114 mm reflectors in this price range. Its lightweight design makes it easy to transport, and the optics deliver images free of color aberrations.

This telescope is not only ideal for observing planets but also allows you to explore some objects beyond our solar system. Admire the vibrant colors of bright stars like the double star system Albireo in the constellation Cygnus or observe the famous double-double star Epsilon Lyrae in the constellation Lyra. The compact N 130/1000 is easy to use and offers fast, reliable performance.
