Levenhuk Ra 200N Dobson Telescope Product description

  1. Newtonian Reflector Design: The Levenhuk Ra 200N utilizes a classical Newtonian reflector optical system, featuring a substantial 200mm primary mirror. This design excels at gathering vast amounts of light, making it ideal for observing faint deep-sky objects like nebulae, galaxies, and star clusters, while also providing crisp views of the Moon and planets.

  2. Dobsonian Mount for Simplicity: Mounted on a sturdy Dobsonian alt-azimuth base, this telescope offers unparalleled ease of use. It requires minimal setup, allowing observers to quickly target and track celestial objects with simple push-pull movements, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced visual astronomers.

  3. High-Quality Optics: Equipped with optical glass mirrors, the telescope delivers bright, clear, and high-contrast images free from chromatic aberration. The f/6 focal ratio provides a wide field of view, perfect for sweeping across star fields or capturing extended deep-sky targets.

  4. Robust and Stable Construction: The telescope features a durable metal optical tube and a heavy-duty wooden Dobsonian base. This robust construction ensures excellent stability during observations, minimizing vibrations and providing a steady platform for detailed celestial exploration.
