Designed for ambitious beginners and experienced observers alike, this set combines compact, high-performance Maksutov-Cassegrain optics with a modern, precise equatorial mount that is fully controllable via Wi-Fi.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to its <strong>2250 mm long focal length<\/strong> and its <strong>152 mm opening<\/strong>, This telescope excels in high-magnification planetary observation, while remaining capable of revealing many deep-sky objects. The GoTo mount, driven by the <strong>PMC-Eight Open GoTo<\/strong>, Its unique design ensures fast scoring, precise tracking and a high degree of customization freedom.<\/p>\n<h3>Messier MC-152\/2250 Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope<\/h3>\n<p>The Messier MC-152's Maksutov-Cassegrain optics feature a compact, robust design. Its <strong>short tube length of just 490 mm<\/strong> greatly facilitates transport and installation, while retaining a low weight. <strong>2250 mm long focal length (F\/14.8)<\/strong>, ideal for high-magnification observations.<\/p>\n<p>This telescope is particularly well suited to the detailed observation of <strong>planets<\/strong>and <strong>double stars<\/strong> and <strong>planetary nebulae<\/strong>. It also lets you explore iconic deep-sky objects such as the Orion Nebula, the Whirlpool Galaxy and the Dumbbell Nebula. Sound <strong>2.5\u2033 Hexafoc eyepiece holder<\/strong> (65 mm) ensures excellent mechanical stability and precise focusing, even with heavy accessories.<\/p>\n<p>A <strong>high quality lens filter included<\/strong>, This allows for totally secure solar observations: sunspots, eclipses and planetary transits. <strong>Warning: never point the telescope at the Sun without this filter.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>EXOS-2 PMC-Eight GoTo equatorial mount<\/h3>\n<p>The frame <strong>EXOS-2 PMC-Eight GoTo<\/strong> from Explore Scientific is a modern, robust and silent German equatorial mount. It is based on <strong>NEMA-11 micro stepper motors<\/strong> with high-precision belt drive, guaranteeing smooth, precise tracking for both visual observation and astrophotography.<\/p>\n<p>The system <strong>Open GoTo PMC-8<\/strong> integrates a powerful Wi-Fi control unit, featuring a multiprocessor microcontroller with <strong>8 cores<\/strong> and an Ethernet\/Wi-Fi 10\/100 adapter. Control can be via web browser, mobile application, ASCOM or serial connection, offering maximum flexibility.<\/p>\n<h3>ExploreStars application and intuitive celestial navigation<\/h3>\n<p>The application <strong>ExploreStars<\/strong>, specially developed for the PMC-Eight system, features a modern, visually appealing interface. Alignment stars and celestial objects are displayed as <strong>interactive graphic star chart<\/strong>, with detailed textual information.<\/p>\n<p>Initializing the GoTo is as simple as pressing a <strong>intuitive alignment to 2 or 3 stars<\/strong>. Centering, guidance, corrections and movements can be performed via touchscreen, virtual joystick or directional controls.<\/p>\n<h3>Open GoTo: customization and scalability<\/h3>\n<p>The system <strong>Open GoTo<\/strong> allows advanced users to create, modify and load their own firmware into the PMC-8. It is thus possible to define <strong>customized object lists<\/strong> or adapt system behavior to specific needs. An ASCOM driver is available, which also supports the <strong>impulse control<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>Integrated polar finder for precise positioning<\/h3>\n<p>A <strong>illuminated polar finder included as standard<\/strong> and pre-mounted. It enables fast, precise set-up, essential for long, drift-free exposure times during astrophotography sessions. Integrated LED illumination enhances comfort of use, even in total darkness.<\/p>\n<h3>Telescope technical specifications<\/h3>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Optical design<\/td>\n<td>Maksutov-Cassegrain<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Opening<\/td>\n<td>152 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Focal length<\/td>\n<td>2250 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Opening report<\/td>\n<td>F\/14,8<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tube diameter<\/td>\n<td>176 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tube length<\/td>\n<td>490 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Optical material<\/td>\n<td>BK-7, multiple treatment<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Lens holder<\/td>\n<td>Hexafoc 2,5\u2033<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Max. useful magnification<\/td>\n<td>300x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tube weight (including accessories)<\/td>\n<td>6.8 kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Frame technical specifications<\/h3>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Frame type<\/td>\n<td>German GoTo equatorial mount<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>GoTo system<\/td>\n<td>Open GoTo PMC-8<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Motors<\/td>\n<td>NEMA-11 micro stepper<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Max. load capacity.<\/td>\n<td>13 kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Autoguider port<\/td>\n<td>ST-4<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ASCOM compatibility<\/td>\n<td>Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Power supply<\/td>\n<td>12 V DC, 1.6 A max<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tripod<\/td>\n<td>Stainless steel with spirit level<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Scope of delivery<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Messier MC-152 optical tube with Hexafoc eyepiece holder<\/li>\n<li>EXOS-2 PMC-Eight GoTo mount<\/li>\n<li>Stainless steel tripod<\/li>\n<li>2 x 4.5 kg counterweights<\/li>\n<li>Solar lens filter<\/li>\n<li>Super Pl\u00f6ssl eyepiece 26 mm (31.7 mm)<\/li>\n<li>Optical finder 6\u00d730<\/li>\n<li>Illuminated polar researcher<\/li>\n<li>90\u00b0 elbow (31.7 mm)<\/li>\n<li>Integrated 31.7 mm \/ 50.8 mm and T2 adapters<\/li>\n<li>Pipe clamps with universal dovetail 44 mm<\/li>\n<li>Carrying handle with camera support<\/li>\n<li>Smartphone adapter for celestial navigation<\/li>\n<li>Power supply 12 V \/ 2 A<\/li>\n<li>Stellarium software (download)<\/li>\n<li>Rotary sky chart<\/li>\n<li>ExploreStars application (download)<\/li>\n<li>Instructions for use<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>A scalable, high-performance instrument<\/h3>\n<p>With its high-quality optics, open, upgradeable GoTo mount and extremely comprehensive equipment, the BRESSER Messier MC-152\/2250 EXOS-2 PMC-Eight is the ideal choice for those who want to make lasting progress in astronomy, both in visual observation and astrophotography.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Un ensemble complet pour explorer le ciel, de jour comme de nuit Le set de t\u00e9lescope BRESSER Messier MC-152\/2250 associ\u00e9 \u00e0 la monture EXOS-2 PMC-Eight GoTo constitue une solution extr\u00eamement polyvalente pour l\u2019observation astronomique et solaire.
