A telescope that allows you to observe the night sky via a smartphone screen (not included) in real time. Equipped with a main mirror with a diameter of 102 mm and a focal length of 660 mm, it can also be used during the day to view birds, wildlife or landscapes, among other things.
All optical surfaces have been coated with StarBright XLT coatings to increase contrast and light transmission. This allows you to see even the most subtle details when observing the Moon and other planets, as well as galaxies or nebulae.
To observe the sky with a smartphone, place it in a dedicated mount and launch the StarSense Explorer app using LISA's sky recognition technology, which analyzes star patterns and calculates the telescope' s position. Once the user selects an object of interest, arrows leading to it appear on the smartphone screen, allowing the user to quickly and easily locate celestial bodies.
The stability of the telescope is ensured by a robust azimuthal mount, and precise knobs guarantee smooth movement of the telescope.
The set includes:
- Explorer DX 102 telescope,
- 25 mm and 10 mm eyepieces,
- 90° (1.25") angle cap,
- StarPointer finder,
- phone docking station.
