Easy Astronomy with Sky-Watcher

The Sky-Watcher 102/1300 Maksutov Cassegrain is the perfect telescope for beginners and those who want to get straight to observing. Aligning the mount is a breeze with the "Bright Object" alignment mode, and the computerised SynScan system is the ultimate upgrade for automatic pointing and tracking of over 42,000 objects in the sky! Spend less time finding a faint nebula or a distant planet and more time enjoying the wonders of the night sky. Astronomy has never been easier!

The Maksutov-Cassegrain is a compact and powerful optical design that combines a front meniscus lens and two mirrors. The optical tube is closed by the front meniscus, keeping the mirrors protected from atmospheric agents such as humidity, dust and pollution. The tube is short but the focal length is long allowing high magnification with the standard eyepieces. With maximum practical magnification of 256x , this Sky-Watcher Telescope will reveal details in Saturn's rings, Jupiter's bands, the Martian polar ice caps, and the phases of Venus and the moon.

The AZ-Go2 Mount - WiFi-controllable with iOS and Android and compatible with SynScan hand controller, allowing it for smooth tracking and alignment. Use Wifi to control the telescope wirelessly with your mobile device, smartphone or tablet.
