The N optics Orion 114/450:

The Star Blast is a very compact Dobsonian with a surprisingly good optical performance. He was interested for amateur astronomers provides an ideal introduction into the observation.
113 mm aperture collect enough light to map nebulae and galaxies. Not only the large standard objects like the Orion Nebula or the Pleiades, but also 100e fainter objects can be reached with the telescope. If you make the 20 mm eyepiece with a journey through the Milky Way, you will see many nebulae and star clusters in the starry background.
Through the precise parabolic primary mirror is also quite possible lunar and planetary observation. Even with the required enlargements beyond 100 times the image is not flat.
A special feature in this class is the parabolic primary mirror. Typically, these devices have a simple spherical mirror. The advantage is the much sharper image, even with the moon and planets. But even in the large field area is the field just to focus better classes. A parabolic primary mirror is at such a high-intensity Newton is a prerequisite for diffraction-limited imaging.

The device is also so compact that it even finds room in the luggage locker. The Dobsonian mount allows for easy adjustment on smooth running wheels.
The motto of this device is simple: stand up and immediately start watching.

The advantages at a glance:

• Bright and Newton
• compact and simple
• parabolic primary mirror
