The Levenhuk Skyline BASE 50T telescope is a lightweight refractor that is easy to assemble with coated optical elements. It is perfect for observing the Moon and natural or urban landscapes. This telescope is also suitable for observing the planets of the solar system, but it will not be possible to study them in detail. The Levenhuk Skyline BASE 50T is an excellent choice for a child interested in astronomy and space exploration, and it will become a fantastic first telescope for all family members.
Its main features are simple assembly and operation. The optical tube is mounted on a classic altazimuth mount, which does not require special skills or knowledge to operate. If you want to point the telescope at a celestial object, just turn the tube without extra effort and the mount will hold it fixed in the chosen position. A classic optical finder with 5x magnification is used for precise aiming at celestial objects.
The optical elements in the refractor are made of fully coated glass, which enhances image sharpness and contrast. The kit includes a Barlow lens and four eyepieces: with magnifications of 150x, 30x, 48x, and an erecting eyepiece. Choose the appropriate magnification for observations and increase or decrease it by changing the eyepieces. The mirror diagonal included in the kit is used for terrestrial observations. Like all telescopes, the Levenhuk Skyline BASE 50T transmits an inverted image, and a mirror diagonal makes it realistic.
An aluminum tripod with adjustable legs makes the telescope more stable. Each leg can be adjusted separately: this allows the Levenhuk Skyline BASE 50T to stand on rough surfaces as well. An accessory tray is attached to the tripod. You can use the tray to conveniently store eyepieces, star maps, a compass, or other materials.
