The moon landings, functioning Mars rovers, exciting images from high-performance telescopes – are you fascinated by what NASA has been able to achieve? Then why not embark on your own exciting voyage of discovery into space with the
ISA Space Exploration NASA 70/700 AZ telescope ? After all, that’s where every NASA astronaut and space explorer started out. As you will see, with this
complete kit , including
refracting telescope and
accessories , your leap into the world of astro observation will be quick and easy. Perfect for exploring the beauties of the sky by yourself!
Bright new prospects with your telescope The moon and the planets in particular give a high-contrast image thanks to the
70 mm aperture , the
700 mm focal length and the
aperture ratio of f/10 . You can easily change the magnification with the
two eyepieces that are included in the kit – from 35x to 77x and back again. You’ll be amazed when the two main cloud belts on the gas giant Jupiter suddenly come into view – and from a distance of some 600 million kilometres! You’ll also be able to see other celestial objects located outside of our solar system, including the well-known Orion Nebula M42.
Easy operation so that you can get started quickly Want some instant amazement? That’s why this
entry-level telescope comes almost fully pre-assembled. Plus, with the
altazimuth mount on the
stable, height-adjustable tripod , this
astronomical telescope is intuitive in use as well. With it, you simply move the tube up and down and from left to right by hand, as you would with a standard camera tripod. Ideal for moving from one celestial highlight to the next, which you should be able to locate easily with the
LED dot finder . Once aligned, it will indicate the point in the sky at which your telescope is currently pointing, without magnification. That way, you’ll know where everything is located before you start observing in more detail.
A range of telescope accessories for more astro enjoyment Your view into space can be even more exciting if you have just the right equipment. Which is why this
telescope kit comes with a range of practical astro accessories. With the
zenith mirror , you can enjoy comfortable observations whilst maintaining a convenient body posture, even when the lens is pointed vertically upwards. You can even explore our own star during the day with the
lens solar filter . After attaching the filter to the telescope aperture (and only then), you can safely keep watch on sunspots and granulation on the surface of the sun. Fancy taking your first steps in astrophotography? Just grab the
smartphone camera adapter – simply place your smartphone camera over the eyepiece and your
telescope will become a camera lens. Perfect for interesting snapshots of the moon, planets and sun.
