NEW – now including a high-quality aperture Solar-filter for safe observation of sunspots, eclipses and planet transits. Great telescope for night and solar observation.
Ambitious beginners and advanced observers alike will see the brightest objects outside our solar system with the
BRESSER Messier AR-102. Watch details in the Great Orion Nebula from the astonishing distance of 1500 lightyears (14.200.000.000.000 km)! The rock-solid mount provides relaxed views even at
high magnifications; rigidity and usability are setting new standards in this price range. Due to the
sophisticated mount you can even start taking pictures of the moon with this telescope; scanning the lunar terminator is simply a pleasure. You will never give the
BRESSER Messier AR-102 away voluntarily.
