We are proud to introduce the Discovery line of optical instruments, manufactured by Levenhuk and sponsored by Discovery.
The Levenhuk Discovery Spark 114 EQ perfect for in-depth study of the night sky. It makes it possible to study distant galaxies, observe enchanting nebulae and double stars as well as view various other objects from the Messier catalogue. This telescope is also suitable for early explorations of the Solar System. There is a special filter for lunar observations.
The 114 mm diameter spherical mirror is the main component of the optical assembly of the Levenhuk Discovery Spark 114 EQ. Thanks to the combination of the long focal length and the anti-reflection treatment of the optics, the image is clear, rich in contrast and with well-defined details. The equatorial mount, complete with knobs to control the micrometric movement and counterweight, allows you to point the telescope's optical tube precisely towards celestial bodies and follow their movement fluidly.
The tripod is made made of aluminum and remains stable even on the most rugged terrain. In the center of the three legs there is an accessory tray where it is possible to place the Barlow lens and eyepieces. All items listed are included in the package. If necessary, the instrument can be upgraded by adding other accessories. The rack and pinion focuser has a standard diameter of 1.25", which offers excellent compatibility with various accessories. The kit also includes an educational book, the perfect gift for those who want to learn more about the objects observed through the lens. telescope eyepiece.
