Visit Skywatcher Explorer 130P EQ2 is a high-performance Newton telescope designed for demanding beginners and amateur astronomers looking for a versatile, upgradeable instrument. Thanks to its high-quality parabolic mirror and precise equatorial mount, it offers an excellent night sky observation experience.
Appreciated by novices and experienced users alike, this model offers an excellent compromise between power, optical quality and ease of use.
The Explorer 130P is equipped with a parabolic primary mirror of 130 mm, A feature usually reserved for higher-end models. This type of mirror eliminates spherical aberrations, resulting in a sharper, higher-contrast image rich in detail.
With a focal length of 650 mm (f/5), This telescope offers a wide field of view while retaining good magnification capability. It is ideal for observing :
The parabolic mirror effectively concentrates all light rays at a focal point, guaranteeing precise focusing and optimum optical performance.
The ultra-thin (0.5 mm) arms of the secondary mirror support reduce diffraction effects and further enhance image contrast.
The telescope is mounted on a EQ2 equatorial mount, ideal for tracking celestial objects. Once aligned with the North Star (Polaris), it compensates for the Earth's rotation, making it easy to track objects.
Visit flexible controls for slow movements on the right ascension (RA) and declination (DEC) axes enable precise, comfortable tracking, even at high magnification.
With a visual load capacity of approx. 4 kg, The mount offers good stability for this type of instrument.
The relatively light optical tube (approx. 3 kg) is easy to handle and install. The whole unit rests on a adjustable aluminium tripod, equipped with a practical accessory tray.
With a total weight of around 18.6 kg (including packaging), this telescope is easy to transport, yet robust enough for regular use.
The Skywatcher Explorer 130P EQ2 is supplied with the essential accessories:
These elements enable you to start observing quickly, with different magnifications adapted to the main celestial objects.
Note: power supply and batteries not included.
The Explorer 130P EQ2 is an excellent all-round telescope, capable of adapting to a wide range of observing situations. Its 130 mm aperture reveals a wealth of detail in deep-sky objects, while still offering excellent planetary performance.
It also provides an excellent basis for moving on to more advanced observations, and even the first experiments in light astrophotography.
