Levenhuk Telescope AC 70/400 Skyline Travel SUN AZ (60712)

Levenhuk Skyline Travel Sun 70 is a compact refractor telescope, perfect for travel and outdoor adventures. The telescope features a 40 cm optical tube and a 70 mm aperture, providing clear images of planets, the Moon, and bright satellites. It is also well suited for detailed terrestrial viewing, such as landscapes and architecture. Under optimal conditions, you can observe most Messier objects (though without detail), the Cassini Division in Saturn's rings, and Jupiter’s Great Red Spot.

This telescope comes with a special protective solar filter, allowing for safe solar observation. You can view sunspots when the weather is clear. Always use caution and ensure the solar filter is securely attached, fully covering the objective lens. Never look at the Sun without a proper solar filter, as this can result in serious and permanent eye injury. When observing the Sun, make sure the finder scope is covered or removed.

The telescope kit includes a diagonal mirror that provides an upright and undistorted image, making it suitable for both astronomical and terrestrial observations. Two eyepieces (67x and 20x), a 3x Barlow lens, and a solar filter are included, allowing for a wide range of magnifications up to 140x, and even up to 200x with the accessories provided. A 5x24 finder scope makes it easy to locate celestial objects.

This lightweight telescope is mounted on an altazimuth mount with manual controls, allowing smooth movement along both vertical and horizontal axes using a handle. No complicated setup is needed—just assemble and begin observing. The aluminum tripod is adjustable from 40 cm to 125 cm, making it comfortable for users of any height.

This portable refractor is a great gift for both children and beginner astronomy enthusiasts. It comes with a sturdy branded backpack designed with compartments for the telescope, tripod, and accessories.

Important: Never look directly at the Sun without a special solar filter, as this can cause permanent eye damage or blindness.
