DÃRR Spiegelteleskop SATURN 900 Reflector telescope Achromatic
The extensively equipped DOeRR reflector telescope SATURN 900 is the ideal device for beginners with claim. Even the advanced Astro-fans will have fun with the mirror tele. It is very stable, can be easily used and is already fitted completely with stand, EQ2-mounting, Finder scope, 3 oculars, 2-fold Barlow lens and Moon filter. The SATURN 900 makes possible impressive observation results from the Moon, planets, stars, brighter fog, open star clusters and ball star clusters Even details of larger planets such as the ring of Saturn or the Jupiter moons become visible. The DOeRR SATURN 900 is a reflector telescope or also mirror tele telescope after the Newton model. This design has proven itself over a long time. Generations of Astro names preferred the Newton design because of its many advantages. Despite the large focal length of 900mm and an 114mm opening, the telescopic tube is relatively compact. This is achieved by diverting the light from the main and catching mirrors. This makes the telescope not only more compact, but there are also no color defects â as with lens tele scopes often usual. The SATURN delivers a very good optical quality. The Newton design of the Astro tele telescope allows a side view. This provides for pleasant and fatigue-free observation pleasure, without bending or strain. Since mirrors are easier to produce than lenses, SATURN 900 has an outstanding price/performance ratio.The telescope is mounted on an LT1 stand with aluminum tripod legs. It combines high stability with low weight. A big advantage if you want to transport the telescope once. The height of the tripod legs can be adjusted steplessly. In this way, a comfortable observation in an upright position is ensured - regardless of the height of the body. There is a support plate between the tripod legs. This is very useful for storing eyepieces and other accessories on it during the observations.The parallel-latical mounting EQ-2 enables the alignment of the telescope and the precise tracking of celestial objects. The axes are aligned to the axis. Thus, only one axis has to be moved to compensate the arched earthing rotation. An exact tracking of the observed celestial bodies can thus be performed evenly. The object under observation thus always remains in the center of the field of view. Therefore the EQ-2 Equatorial mounting is also suitable for high magnifications. The movement of the pole axis and the declination axis as well as the tracking is done manually by means of rotary knobs for the fine movement, which are fixed on a flexible shaft respectively. The sliding counterweight and the two tube clamps, which allow the telescope to be positioned exactly on the mounting, keep the telescope in the optimum balance.The components of the telescope are made in such a way that they can be set up quite easily and quickly. Even the operation of the telescope is simple. While you are following the observation objects with only one rotary knob, the sharpness can be set precisely via two dials. The rotary knob for the tracking sits on a flexible shaft and can be guided exactly at the position, at which a pleasant control is ensured for each height of the body. All setting options are designed in such a way that even beginners can immediately operate the telescope. No matter whether children, teenagers or adults - nothing stands in the way of a successful start in the world of Astro nomy.The finder telescope is placed parallel on the telescopic tube and enables â after one-time adjustment â the quick detection of the desired celestial objects that you want to observe. A finder telescope is necessary because the viewing angle of telescopes is so low due to the high magnification that quick reference to celestial objects is not possible. The viewfinder mirror captures a larger area in the sky with the small magnification of only 5x and thus facilitates the quick alignment of the telescope to the desired object.This text is machine translated.
