Levenhuk Skyline PRO 127 MAK Telescope - LEVENHUK
Levenhuk Skyline PRO 127 MAK is the most powerful catadioptric telescope in the Skyline PRO series. A perfect combination of high-quality sights and small tube size is the main feature of the Maksutov-Cassegrain optical design. The long focal length and large aperture make this model perfect for planetary observations. With this telescope, you can observe the atmospheric flows of Jupiter, the spaces between the rings of Saturn, the most prominent features of the surface of Mars, large and small craters and plateaus characteristic of the Moon, compact nebulae and star clusters. This model does not take up much space, so you can easily transport it and install it wherever you are. The mount supports other computer drive systems and polar alignment finders, making it perfect for astrophotography.

The lenses and mirrors have undergone an FMC treatment, which allows maximum light collection and increases their useful life. The telescope tube is installed on an equatorial mount with slow motion controls. You can also install a dual-axis computerized drive system and a polar alignment finder (purchased separately) on your mount. It is equipped with graduated circles, which after a quick adjustment, allow you to locate objects based on their celestial coordinates and follow them with a simple turn of an equatorial adjustment knob. The tripod, adjustable in height, has a practical storage tray where you can store all the objects in use. The red dot finderscope allows you to quickly move to the desired location.
The kit includes 10 millimeter (0.4 inch) and 25 millimeter (0.98 inch) eyepieces, with a 52° field of view and 150x and 60x magnification respectively. The lenses are made of glass and have undergone FMC treatment. The focus of the telescope is easy to adjust, just like the collimation of the primary mirror by turning the focus knob. With this telescope you can use other eyepieces, so that their assembly produces higher magnifications (consider, however, that the highest practical power of this telescope is 250x).
The Levenhuk Skyline PRO series was designed for experienced and demanding astronomers and includes a range of different models. A common feature is maximum precision and reliability during observations and astrophotography, as well as high-quality materials and lenses.
