Discovery Spark 114 AZ telescope
Discovery Spark 114 AZ telescope
The Discovery Spark 114 AZ is a Newtonian reflector telescope that is perfect for studying deep-sky objects. You can use it to observe nebulae, star clusters, and double stars. It is also ready to explore the space objects (within Saturn). The telescope comes with an illustrated book of knowledge. It will become a wonderful guide for beginner astronomers that will bring the mysterious universe closer.
The Discovery Spark 114 AZ telescope tube is pointed by a fork alt-azimuth mount. The mount has a lock knob for precise and smooth vertical movements. The mirror has a spherical shape, the optics are made of glass with an anti-reflective coating. With a 900mm focal length, the telescope can “reach” even dim deep-sky objects and produce an image that is clear, sharp, and crisp.
The mount is installed on a sturdy metal tripod with adjustable legs. The accessory tray is in the center of a tripod. The kit includes eyepieces with different focal lengths and a Barlow lens, which provides many possibilities for observing at different magnifications. You can add other accessories to the telescope, if needed: The popular 1.25" eyepiece diameter allows for the installation of other additional accessories.
