Sky Rover 102 GPA Planetary Telescope - 102/1122 mm f/11 SD Apo with optics test

Name: Sky Rover 102 GPA Planetary Telescope - 102/1122 mm f/11 SD Apo with optics test
Brand: Sky Rover
SKU: SR102GPA-F11
Price: 1149 EUR

The telescope delivers planetary detail that approaches the theoretical maximum in visual observation.

Very good correction of chromatic aberrations by a 2-element APO lens with Super ED glass

A doublet lens cools down more quickly, which reduces instrument seeing

Even at maximum magnification sharpness is maintained

Improved 2.5" rack and pinion RAP focuser with 2" and 1.25" connection

Retractable dew shield for better transport and optimal protection against stray light

Finder holder for connecting finder telescopes and red dot finders

Binoviewers can be used without path compensation (remove tube extension)

Tube rings and GP style dovetail bar included

Weighing just 4.6 kg, the SD apo is well supported by mounts like the Skywatcher EQ5

With optics test by Teleskop-Service on the optical bench (autocollimation) - star photograph extrafocal, intrafocal and focal as well as Ronchi test and protocol - so you have a 100% tested telescope.

Sky Rover 102/1122 mm f/11 GPA Planetary Telescope

In the field of planetary observation, although refracting telescopes are inherently limited in aperture, their naturally high contrast, razor-sharp imaging, and vivid color reproduction have earned them the reputation of being "optical masterpieces" among observers who pursue the ultimate visual experience.

The SR 102GPA Planetary telescope features an innovative doublet elements air-spaced apochromatic optical system, incorporating a Super ED (ultra-low dispersion) lens. Paired with a long focal ratio design, it significantly enhances the Polychromatic Strehl Ratio (PSR) - a critical metric indicating optical performance across multiple wavelengths. Its exceptional PSR allows the telescope to deliver planetary detail that approaches the theoretical maximum in visual observation. This makes it a "retina-grade" optical tool for the most discerning observers.

The 102GPA Planetary telescope embodies the elegance of scientific instrumentation through a revival of vintage aesthetics. When placed with a wooden tripod in a study or library, its classic silhouette transforms it into a collectible, artisanal piece that carries the romance of the stars. But once aimed at the night sky, its air-spaced apochromatic system reveals its true prowess - turbulence in Jupiter´s cloud bands and the crisp divisions in Saturn´s rings appear in striking detail through the eyepiece.

If you remove the rear tube end piece, the working distance increases by 100 mm. This also allows you to combine binoviewers and a 2" star diagonal and observe without glass path compensation - making for a more relaxed observing experience, whilst planets and the Moon appear more life-like.

Whether as a statement piece for refined interiors or a powerhouse for serious astronomical observation, the 102GPA redefines the symbiosis of science and aesthetics through its "visual-grade precision" and "classical artistic charm".
