The telescope optics: Ideal telescope from Skywatcher for terrestrial observation during the day as well as for deep sky astronomy. Skywatcher Startravel telescopes are 2-element, air-spaced achromatic refractors perfect for wide-field observing of comets, star fields, star clusters, nebulae, bright galaxies and planets, the moon and sun (with safe, suitable filters), and nature observation during the day. This wide-field telescope with its short tube can also be used with a fixed aperture for astrophotography or terrestrial photography. Its fast focal ratio makes it ideal for lunar and solar eclipse photography as well as nature photography. The telescope mount: This smallest, equatorial mount from Skywatcher already corresponds to the larger models in terms of structure. You can use the flexible shafts to adjust and track the object in the telescope. You can loosen the clamps on the axes for quick movement. A special feature of this mount is that you can also use it like an azimuthal mount and can also easily adjust terrestrial objects. As an optional accessory, there is also a motor drive for the right ascension axis for this mount.
