MANUFACTURER DESCRIPTION:
A BEAUTIFUL INSTRUMENT WITH HIGH CONTRAST AND IMAGE DEFINITION - GOOD MECHANICAL STABILITY. THE JUPITER 1 REFRACTOR IS A GOOD ENTRY INTO THE FIELD OF AMATEUR ASTRONOMY.

THE IMAGES ARE WELL DEFINED AND PRACTICALLY FREE OF CHROMATIC ABERRATIONS, ALMOST LIKE A LENS AND OF THE SAME APERTURE, BUT COSTING MUCH MORE. THE INSTRUMENT AS A WHOLE AND THE SETUP ARE VERY STABLE AND EASY TO USE.

THE MAIN FEATURES OF THE INSTRUMENT:

IMAGE RENDERING:
PARTICULARLY SHARP - NOT ONLY ON THE MOON AND PLANETS THE CONTRAST AND DEFINITION ARE IMPRESSIVE, BUT ALSO STAR CLUSTERS ARE WELL VISUALIZED. EVEN AT THE HIGHEST MAGNIFICATIONS THE STARS ARE CLEAR. THE FOCAL LENGTH, IN RELATION TO THE APERTURE, IS WELL BALANCED. CHROMATIC ABERRATIONS ARE THEREFORE MINIMIZED.
AT ANY ENLARGEMENT THE MOON WILL OFFER BEAUTIFUL IMAGES OF HUNDREDS OF CRATERS, RUTS AND RELIEF. THE PLANETS ALREADY APPEAR WITH NUMEROUS DETAILS, SUCH AS. THE RINGS OF SATURN, THE GREAT RED SPOT OF JUPITER OR OF COURSE THE ASPECT OF THE PHASES OF VENUS.
EVEN IN THE SUN (WITH THE FOIL SOLAR FILTER!) THIS INSTRUMENT WILL GIVE YOU EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE.

STABILITY:
HIGH MECHANICAL STABILITY - IN THE IMAGE YOU CAN SEE HOW WELL DIMENSIONED THE TS EQ MOUNT IS. EVEN AT THE HIGHEST MAGNIFICATIONS FOCUSING IS VERY SIMPLE BECAUSE THE MOUNT OFFERS THE NECESSARY STABILITY. EVEN THE USE OF TWO METAL SUPPORT RINGS PROVIDES A SOLID ASSEMBLY.

SIMPLE TO USE:
ASSEMBLE AND GO - THAT'S THE MOTTO OF THE JUPITER 1. THE SPOTLIGHT IS ALWAYS OPTIMALLY COLLIMATED AND ALWAYS READY TO USE. EVEN CHILDREN CAN USE IT AFTER THEY HAVE RECEIVED THE NECESSARY INSTRUCTIONS FROM THEIR PARENTS.
THANKS TO THE HEIGHT-ADJUSTABLE ALUMINUM STAND, THE INSTRUMENT CAN ADAP TO THE HEIGHT OF THE USER. THE TELESCOPE IS STURDY AND DESIGNED TO BE USED ALSO IN A "RUSTIC" WAY.

QUICK ASSEMBLY:
RINGS CAN BE OPENED. THE RINGS ALWAYS REMAIN CONNECTED TO THE SETTING. TO ASSEMBLE THE INSTRUMENT, SIMPLY OPEN THE RINGS, INSERT THE TELESCOPE AND CLOSE - READY.

MANY ACCESSORIES:
YOU ARE PROVIDED WITH THE ELEMENTS FOR AN OPTIMAL IMPLEMENTATION. THE FOCUSER ALLOWES THE INSERTION OF 1.25" ACCESSORIES AND THIS ALLOWS TO ADD DIFFERENT ELEMENTS SUCH AS FILTERS, PHOTOGRAPHIC ADAPTERS...
ALSO THE TS-EQ MOUNT CAN BE IMPLEMENTED WITH GOOD STEPPING MOTORS. SO YOU WON'T HAVE TO CHASE THE OBJECT WITH THE FLEX LEVERS AS THIS PROCESS WILL OCCUR AUTOMATICALLY.

A FULL SERIES OF ACCESSORIES IS SUPPLIED WITH THE INSTRUMENT:

2 GOOD PLÖSSL EYEPIECES (PLÖSSL WITH 25MM FOCAL LENGTH ... FOR 36X (OVERVIEW) / PLÖSSL WITH 6.5MM FOCAL LENGTH ... FOR 138X (MOON AND PLANETS)
DIAGONAL MIRROR ... FOR A COMFORTABLE 90° VIEW
1.5X RECTIFIER LENS ... FOR EARTH OBSERVING
2X BARLOW LENS ... TO DOUBLE THE MAGNIFICATIONS
LUNAR FILTER ... DIMENS THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE MOON

THE JUPITER 1 REFRACTOR IS A INDEPENDENT INSTRUMENT. IT IS NOT ONLY A GREAT BEGINNER'S INSTRUMENT BUT ALSO A GREAT SECONDARY INSTRUMENT. IT IS ALSO EASILY TRANSPORTABLE. THE HEIGHT-ADJUSTABLE ALUMINUM STAND IS WEATHERPROOF AND OFFERS A SOLID BASE FOR THE TELESCOPE.
