The telescope optics: Awarded by Sky At Night magazine, this Skyhawk-1145P Skywatcher telescope is a great choice for the discerning beginner and earns high praise from more experienced astronomers as well. With the useful opening of 114 mm, combined with a high-quality parabolic mirror, this telescope is a good all-rounder for observing the moon, bright planets, nebulae, galaxies and also star clusters. The Skyhawk-1145P telescopes are equipped with a premium quality parabolic mirror, typically found only in larger and more expensive telescopes, to eliminate spherical errors and provide a sharper image with higher contrast and richer detail. A parabolic mirror collects all incoming light rays in one point for a perfect focus. In addition, we use particularly thin 0.5 mm struts to hang up the secondary mirror, which reduces diffraction effects and light losses. 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. As an optional accessory, there is also a motor drive for the right ascension axis for this mount.
