Jupiter - an easy to use and powerful telescope for beginners.
The TS Optics Jupiter is a complete astronomical telescope with everything you need to begin observing. Starting with the tripod and mount, the eyepieces for different magnifications, - all you need is included.
What you can see with this telescope:
- The Moon
Craters and ridges can be seen easily. Watch the sun rise in the craters while more and more detail becomes visible! - The Planets
Observe the phases of Venus or the rings of Saturn. On Jupiter you can see many details including the atmospheric bands and the Galilean moons. Under good conditions you can see the great red spot - a huge hurricane twice the size of our home planet! - The Sun
With the Baader solar filter sheet you can easily build a solar filter that allows you to safely watch the activity on our own sun. You can find the filter sheet under "recommended accessories". - The Stars
Hundreds of distant objects are within reach of this telescope. Compared with the naked eye the telescope collects almost 140x as much light! Watch multiple stars with their often colourful components. Discover the ring nebula in Lyra - the remnants of an old star that has expired. You can even see objects outside our own galaxy: Globular star clusters that circle around our milky way, or the Great Andromeda Galaxy, our closest major neighbour galaxy. Here the improvement in light gathering power and resolution compared with a 60mm refractor will be particularly obvious. - Our Earth
You can also use this telescope as a powerful spotting scope for viewing planetside objects such as birds, ships, mountains, ... The telescope offers a very good image sharpness for planetary observing.
