Deep Sky:This telescope will gather enough light toshow magnitude 13.0 stars.
It will show all the Messier objects(M1 to M110) and many more NGC galaxies, nebulae and star-clouds too.The Andromeda Galaxy M32,
TheGreat Nebula in Orion M42,
The Dumb-bell Nebula M27
The GreatGlobular in Hercules M13
… will all be clearly visible. ( Good luck with M97, ‘The Owl’, though! ) The Pleiades, the Seven Sisters (M45),will reveal many more members of their extended family in low powerviews that will amaze! Currently the ‘Late Winter Sky’ is on viewand represents the ‘best’ season of amateur astronomy objects of theyear!
I will package thetelescope safely for transportation. The box will beapprox 11kg.Summary:
All-in-alla really nice telescope that will show detail, without breaking thebank or being too difficult to use. This telescope is useful on theon EQ mounting, and so it’s a great opportunity to start off on theright foot on a budget!
=======================================================AboutME:Myname is Barry Cooper. I’ma second-hand telescope dealer.
Ido not sell rubbish telescopes! My feedback depends on it… Ihave 50+ years experience observing with telescopes. Isell only instruments that will be useful to amateur astronomers.
I’mnot selling this instrument because it doesn’t work right, or becauseI don’t know how to use it, or indeed because I’m trying to hoodwinkyou into buying something that’s not as good as I say it is. I selltelescopes to make a bit of money, obviously, but also because I wantto see newcomers to the hobby start off on the right foot. I want youtobe very happy with your telescope.
Thereare a lot of so-called ‘starter’ scopes out there, even being sold byreputable telescope suppliers, that I won’t and don’t allow throughmy door! The second hand market is filled with instruments withsecond rate, poor quality optics, ridiculous magnifications andoutrageous detail claims. You won’t find those in my auctions!
Iwould never sell any of the following makes, their optics are awfuland sometimes even plastic! Please, never buy any of these:Bushnell/ Edu Science / Jessops / National Geographic (Own Make) / Opticraft/ Optus / Science Tec / Seben / Simmons / Tasco / Vision King /Vivitar / Zennox.
Thereare also scopes with well known mechanical failings, which I willrectify before sending it out. Buy another scope if you like, take achance, it’s your choice, but will it perform as well as one of mine?
Mymission is to give you a great scope at a good start price (My BuyIt Now price is always very fair, but people, bless them, like tobid, don’t they? And I’m afraid, more often than not, the auctionfinishes above the BIN… But, I can’t help that!).
Ialso offer an after sales service. I know plenty about your telescopeand I’m happy to help with any problems you have and any query. I’malways available on eBay message, or via email from my SupercooperTelescope Help website (Message me for details).
So,please read my feedback, absorb the advice on the website, and relax,you’re in good hands.=================================================================
