A compact, optically-fast telescope for astronomers that is easy to transport and simple to operate. It is a so-called 'Dobsonian' telescope. This type of reflecting telescope is very easy for beginners to use and collects a lot of light from astronomical objects.
This Dobsonian reflector telescope comes fully assembled. It can be simply placed on a table for you to immediately get started with your space exploration. Extensive accessories are provided for getting started as simply as easily as possible with your star-filled fun.
A special feature of this Dobsonian telescope is that the OTA is connected to the single-armed mount via a prism rail (swallow-tail). As a result, the OTA can not only be removed for transport, but also be attached to any other astronomical mount equipped with a prism-rail. It is also easier to balance the telescope - something which is especially important with Dobsonians.
It is not only important which telescope you buy, but also where you buy it.

A telescope tube is referred to as an optic because it contains the components necessary to collect and concentrate light.
Describes the brightness of a star or point-shaped object, which can still just be distinguished by the telescope. The naked eye, for example, can make out stars with a magnitude of up to 6.
Eyepieces are needed for observing. Depending on the focal length, you achieve a certain level of magnification.
The specification 1.25" refers to the diameter of the connector (1.25" = 31.8 millimetres).
