Sky Watcher Heritage 100P Tabletop Dobsonian Astronomy Telescope

The Sky Watcher Heritage 100P Tabletop Dobsonian Astronomy Telescope 10245, is a small, portable scope that is easy to grab and go. It may be used to observe the Moon and bright planets thanks to its high-quality 100mm f/4 parabolic optics, and it has enough light gathering capacity to observe star clusters, brilliant galaxies, and nebulae as well.

It comes with a Wooden Alt-Azimuth tabletop mount and a 3/8" thread located on the base allows it also to use on a suitable field tripod. Furthermore, it is supplied in a presentation gift box.

Sky Watcher Heritage 100P includes a red dot finder, x2 Barlow lens, and eyepieces measuring 10mm and 25mm in 1.25 inches. Focuser with rack and pinion. All glass lenses and optics.

The Heritage 100P features high quality parabolic primary mirrors to remove the spherical aberrations present in 'quick' focal length reflectors with spherical primary mirrors. All the light beams are parabolized by the mirrors to focus on a single point, producing clear, contrasty images that are rich in detail.

Sky-Watcher Deluxe Mirror Coatings: Today's reflectors often feature an aluminium coating on the mirror surface, followed by a protective layer of silicon monoxide or silicon dioxide. Compared to silicon monoxide, silicon dioxide creates a far more durable coat but costs more to apply since it needs specialised equipment. Because the mirror in the majority of reflectors is exposed to the elements and deterioration of the reflecting coating lowers the telescope's resolution, protection is necessary. For maximum durability and long-term performance, Silicon Dioxide Multi-Coating is a standard feature on ALL Sky-Watcher reflectors.
