The Sky-Watcher 127/1500 Star Discovery Maksutov-Cassegrain is a compact and powerful optical design, utilizing a front meniscus lens and two mirrors. The sealed optical tube protects the mirrors from atmospheric elements like humidity, dust, and pollution. Despite its short tube, the long focal length enables high magnification with standard eyepieces. With a maximum practical magnification of 254x, this telescope unveils details in Saturn’s rings, Jupiter’s bands, the Martian polar ice caps, and the phases of Venus and the moon.
