ASTRAL TELESCOPE


 

The astral mirror telescope has a good luminosity and a very good separating power. In the image we have a NEWTONIAN telescope, where the observation is made on the side of the telescope on the higher end.
 With the SCHMIDT-CASSEGRAIN the observation is made in line through the telescope. They are more compact and have a bigger field of view, but the construction is more complicated and then more expensive. The mirror quality is essential it can be spherical or aspherical. The reflection do not give any chromatic aberrations. The mirror telescope is destinate to the observation of faint object or for object that need a good  separating power.

 

 

 

The tripod must be  equatorial, with pointing device to point the polar star in order to align the telescope to the terrestrial axe of rotation. Which is of most importance for a good astral observation. The cheaper instrument for initiation have azimuthal tripod.

EQUATORIAL : The equatorial tripod have three axes. One is on the terrestrial axe of rotation , which should be pointing on the polar star. On equatorial axe and perpendicular axe . This type of fixation gives the possibility to turn only one axe to follow the stars, the axe can be motorized for the astro photo and for a more convenient observation. .
AZIMUTHAL : The azimuthal tripod permits movement in two axes, horizontal and vertical, which means that we must turn both axes in order to follow the stars. These tripods are made for a terrestrial observation.

SEPARATING POWER :This is the capacity of the instrument to separate two near objects, in order to see two objects and not only one, Like doubles stars. Bigger is the objectif, bigger is the separating power.

See more in 20 minutes than Galileo saw in a lifetime. Galaxies, nebulae, star clusters, the planets, and more. New Meade digital technology makes finding any object in the sky as easy as pushing a button! Choose from over 14,000 celestial objects stored in the Autostar TM hand controllers database, press GO TO, and the telescope moves to the object, places it in the field of view, and follows it across the sky -- automatically, first time, every time. This is one telescope you have to see -- and use -- to believe.
Use the telescopes automatic guided tour feature to explore the rings of Saturn, mountain ranges on the Moon, or dust lanes in the Andromeda Galaxy.
The Meade ETX-90EC Astro Telescope with Autostar Computer Controller -- easy to use by anyone, anywhere, anytime.
