The Sky-Watcher EXPLORER-150P is a fantastic choice forintermediate astronomers and also the serious beginner. With a large 150mm oflight gathering aperture combined with superb parabolic optics, this telescopeis a highly capable all-rounder with excellent performance for the observationof the Moon, planets, nebulae, galaxies and star clusters. Supplied with theEQ3-2 equatorial mount, which when polar aligned, will allow you to easilytrack objects as they move across the night sky via its slow motion controlcables.SpecificationsMagnifications (with eyepieces supplied): x30, x60, x75,x150Highest Practical Power (potential):x300Diameter of Primary Mirror: 150mmTelescope Focal Length: 750mm (f/5)Tube assembly available separatelySupplied complete with 10mm & 25mm eyepieces6x30 finderscopex2 Barlow lens 1.25″ (with camera adaptor)Parabolic Primary Mirror0.5mm Ultra-Thin Secondary Mirror SupportsDirect SLR CameraConnectionEQ3-2 Deluxe Equatorial MountBuilt in Polar Alignment Scope HolderAluminium Tripod with Accessory Tray33% more Light Gathering than 130mmTube rings and dovetail mounting barHighly commended
PARABOLIC PRIMARY MIRRORSFeatures High Quality Parabolic Primary Mirrors to eliminatespherical aberrations inherent in ‘fast’ focal lengh reflectors with sphericalprimary mirrors. The mirrors are parabolized to bring all the light rays to thesame focal point to give sharp, constrasty images, which are full of detail. SKY-WATCHER DELUXE MIRRORCOATINGSMost reflectors today usually have a coat of aluminium asthe mirror surface and then an overcoat of silicon monoxide or silicon dioxideto protect it. Silicon dioxide produces a much more durable coat than siliconmonoxide but requires specialized equipment to apply it and is therefore moreexpensive. Protection is needed, because in most reflectors, the mirror is opento the elements and deterioration of the reflective layer reduces theresolution of the telescope.ALL Sky-Watcherreflectors are Multi-Coated with Silicon Dioxide as standard for OptimumDurability and Long Term Performance. “I have used agreat number of telescopes; some are good, some mediocre and some bad. To methe Sky-Watcher range of instruments are very good indeed, and suited toamateurs of all kinds and they are not priced out of the market! Excellentvalue.Use them and enjoythem.” Sir Patrick Moore CBE FRS (1923 to 2012)”
