This model is recommended for children from the age of 6 and allows to satisfy all the needs of a young astronomer. The Bresser Junior 50/600 silver manual telescope is equipped with optics sufficient for observing craters on the Moon with a diameter of 8 km, stars of weak glow (up to 10.5 stellar magnitudes), Saturn, Uranus and Neptune in the form of stars, the polar caps of Mars. Even nebulae located at a distance of up to 1500 light years will become accessible to the child's eye in the form of bright concentrated spots. With equal success, the telescope can be used to observe city landmarks from great distances.
The telescope is equipped with an azimuth mount, which is easier to operate and lighter in weight compared to the equatorial mount, which is important for a child. With its help, you can observe both terrestrial and celestial objects. The diagonal mirror included in the kit changes the beam path by 90° and allows you to conveniently observe objects located at a significant height above the horizon.
