AstroMedia: The DIY telescope

AstroMedia: The Tabletop Planetarium

The name says it all
In addition to first-class colour-corrected lenses, detailed building instructions and other accessories, you will receive a shopping list for your DIY store. You need a HT tube with a push-fit sleeve, a HT oversleeve and a HT sleeve plug as well as a little skill and the homemade telescope from the DIY store is ready.

With Kepler optics on celestial tracks
The DIY store telescope is a high-quality beginner´s telescope, because for pocket money everyone gets the opportunity to explore the starry sky themselves like Galileo Galilei: Moon craters, Jupiter´s moons and much more. As with all astronomical telescopes with Kepler optics, the image is upside down, but this does not interfere with sky observations. Any stray light can be avoided with the inner diaphragm.

The DIY store telescope also impressed Uwe Reichert from the magazine "Sterne und Weltraum". Read the full article here.
