Enhanced Viewing Experience

Beyond the visible stars, the night sky holds hundreds of objects waiting to be discovered. The 150 mm mirror collects enough light to reveal faint nebulae and distant clusters, providing a deeper look into space.

What You Can Observe

• The Moon: Thousands of craters, mountain ranges and valleys are visible in high detail.

• Planets: Mercury, Jupiter and Saturn can be observed, including features such as Saturn’s rings.

• Globular clusters: Dense, ancient star clusters appearing as misty spheres that begin to resolve at the edges.

• Open clusters: Bright groups of stars that shine vividly against the dark sky.

• Nebulae: Brighter hydrogen nebulae and planetary nebulae become visible under good conditions.

LED Red Dot Finder

Locating celestial objects can be challenging for beginners. The included LED red dot finder, with two brightness levels, simplifies alignment and helps you quickly aim at the Moon, planets or deep-sky objects.
