Sky Watcher Evostar 102 Refractor Astronomy Telescope with EQ3-2 Mount

For observers who want the classic precision of a refractor, the Sky-Watcher Evostar 102 Astronomy Telescope pairs a 102mm achromatic refractor optical tube with a 1000mm focal length and an EQ3-2 deluxe equatorial mount. This traditional two-element, air-spaced design is built for high-resolution viewing, with a multi-coated objective lens and a dual-fit 1. 25"/2" focuser for flexible eyepiece and accessory use.

The long f/9. 8 focal ratio suits detailed study of the Moon, planetary surfaces and other solar system objects, while the manual German equatorial mount tracks the night sky with slow-motion control wires once polar aligned. Supplied with 10mm and 25mm 1. 25-inch eyepieces, the telescope delivers x100 and x40 magnification out of the box. A 6x30 finderscope, 2"/50. 8mm star diagonal and aluminium tripod with accessory tray complete a well-specified setup for beginners and progressing astronomers alike.
