Galileo 700mm x 60mm Astro-Terrestrial Refractor Telescope

The Galileo G-2HT Refractor Telescope is mounted on an Altitude Azimuth yoke mount. It's easy use up and down, left and right movement is great for beginners and casual star gazers alike. Terrestrial viewing is extremely easy due to the included erecting prism which produces a totally erect image. The Mount features a slow motion altitude adjustment rod for precision adjustments and is attached to a very sturdy, fully adjustable, pre-assembled metal tripod with retractable rubber feet. The Galileo G-2HT optical tube assembly features a 700mm focal length. The objective lens is a 60mm two element achromat (color correct crown & flint) air spaced objective lens. The tube itself is aluminum, painted flat black internally, and fully baffled for excellent visual and CCD imaging. The objective is fully multi-coated and has a resolving power of 1.9 arc seconds. The optical tube assembly is diffraction limited at λ4 (1/4 wave in Sodium light). The finderscope is Galileo's Mars' Eye electronic Finderscope which helps by getting the observer behind the telescope without losing the surrounding field of view when targeting objects. Included with the G-2HT are a 1¼″ 6mm eyepiece (116X Power/Magnification), a 1¼″ 20mm eyepiece (35X Power/Magnification) and a 3x Barlow which triples the power when used with each Eyepiece. 700mm x 60mm Optical Tube Assembly Diffraction limited Optical Tube Assembly (λ4) Altitude Azimuth Yoke Mount Slow Motion Altitude Adjustment Rod Fully Adjustable, Pre-assembled Metal Tripod w/Accessory Tray Galileo Mars Eye Electronic Finderscope 1¼″ Helical Rack & Pinion Focuser 1¼″ 6mm Eyepiece 1¼″ 20mm Eyepiece 1¼″ 3x Barlow Lens STELLARIUM Planetarium Software One Year Warranty
