130/650 (Mira-130) SkyWatcher Newton on EQ2 mount
Lightweight and handy Newton telescope, an ideal telescope for beginners. With the popular telescopes of the MIRA series, the entire light curve of the changing star MIRA (Omikron Ceti) can be observed under good conditions.
The SkyWatcher MIRA-130 Newton telescope is a particularly light and handy telescope for beginners. The comparatively small and inexpensive mounting as the EQ2 is sufficient for a stable installation. It offers a very large aperture and is therefore ideally suited for observing DeepSky objects. The main and secondary mirrors are each housed in an adjustable frame. With the short focal length, it offers a very bright optical appearance, so this device is also suitable for the first steps in astrophotography. A parabolic mirror is a prerequisite for good imaging with mirrors that are so strong. Many devices in this class have only a cheap ball mirror, which gives a bad fiew at higher magnifications. Skywatcher uses diffraction-limited parabolic mirrors, which provide a much sharper image of the observers object. The many accessories and the large aperture make it an ideal telescope for beginners.
