    Discover the Universe with Telescope AC 70/900 EQ-1

    Are you fascinated by the night sky? Do you dream of exploring the moon, stars, and planets in detail? The Telescope AC 70/900 EQ-1 is your gateway to the cosmos, designed for astronomy enthusiasts, amateur astronomers, and those eager to begin their astrophotography journey.

    A Gateway to the Stars

    The Omegon 70/900 EQ-1 telescope is perfect for beginners who want to start observing the night sky. With a 70mm aperture, this refractor collects 100 times more light than the naked eye alone, and significantly more than typical beginner telescopes. This enhanced light-gathering capability offers higher resolution and allows you to observe the detailed surfaces of Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars. The moon's cratered landscape comes alive through this powerful telescope, offering a mesmerising view that changes with each lunar phase. And during daylight, you can also use it for nature watching with an additional erecting lens or an amici prism.

    Effortless Setup and Operation

    Setting up the Telescope AC 70/900 EQ-1 is a breeze, taking just a few minutes to get ready for your stargazing adventure. The telescope's 1.25” focuser ensures compatibility with all standard eyepieces, and the rack-and-pinion focuser allows precise adjustments for a clear and stable view.

    Key Benefits:

    • Quick Setup: Get started in minutes.
    • Enhanced Light Collection: 36% more light than a 60mm telescope.
    • High-Contrast Images: Enjoy clear and sharp views.
    • Standard Compatibility: Uses 1.25” focuser for various eyepieces.

    Precision Tracking with EQ-1 Mount

    The parallactic EQ-1 mount enables precise alignment of the optics to the Pole Star, making tracking celestial objects smooth and accurate. With slow motions on the Right Ascension and Declination axes, you can effortlessly follow objects as they move across the sky. The mount includes a counterweight for perfect balancing, ensuring stability during observations. The tripod is extendable from 70cm to 120cm and comes with a convenient tray for eyepieces and accessories. It is user-friendly for both adults and children.

    Included Components:

    • Parallactic EQ-1 Mount
    • Tripod (extendable and sturdy)
    • Counterweight (for balanced optics)
