Skywatcher Astrolux 76 mm f/700 Newtonian Reflector Telescope
The highly affordable Skywatcher Astrolux allows the younger user to take their first steps into the fascinating world of astronomy. Although similar to many other beginner´s reflector telescopes on the market, the Astrolux is supplied with superior 1.25" eyepieces and accessories (not 0.96! or hybrid 1.25") and moreover, the eyepieces have been specially selected to give a much more useful and practical range of magnifications (which are not unrealistically too high!) to enhance your viewing experience. The telescope can be freely moved in both horizontal and vertical axes and is equipped with a micro-adjustment elevation control. Suitable to view the Moon, stars and bright planets and other night sky objects.
As all Skywatcher reflecting telescopes the mirror of the Astrolux is multi-coated with silicon dioxide as standard for optimum durability and long term performance.
