  The Moon
  Craters and ridges can be seen easily. Watch the sun rise in the craters while more and more detail becomes visible!

  The Planets
  Observe the phases of Venus or the rings of Saturn. On Jupiter you can see many details including the atmospheric bands and the Galilean moons. Under good conditions you can see the great red spot - a huge hurricane twice the size of our home planet!

  The Sun
  With the Baader solar filter sheet you can easily build a solar filter that allows you to safely watch the activity on our own sun. You can find the filter sheet under "recommended accessories".

  The Stars
  Hundreds of distant objects are within reach of this telescope. Compared with the naked eye the telescope collects almost 140x as much light! Watch multiple stars with their often colourful components. Discover the ring nebula in Lyra - the remnants of an old star that has expired. You can even see objects outside our own galaxy: Globular star clusters that circle around our milky way, or the Great Andromeda Galaxy, our closest major neighbour galaxy. Here the improvement in light gathering power and resolution compared with a 60mm refractor will be particularly obvious.

  Our Earth
  You can also use this telescope as a powerful spotting scope for viewing planetside objects such as birds, ships, mountains, ... The telescope offers a very good image sharpness for planetary observing. For much more detailed information on what you can see with a telescope of this size please see the link "feedback reviews" above.

  EQ3-1 - a solid base for the telescope:

  The EQ3-1 holds the telescope with a very good stabiltiy. Many other telescopes in this price range are only offered on the EQ-1 or a similar mount that is undersized for a telescope of this size.

  The mount offers professional functions such as:

  ♦ polar fine alignment for precise setup
  ♦ quick release - the mount can be removed from the tripod within seconds
  ♦ oversized field tripod
  ♦ manual slow motion control in both axes through flexible shafts
  ♦ tracking motor available optionally (see "recommended accessories")

  Solid 1.25" Focuser:

  An often overlooked detail of particular importance. The focuser´s job is to hold the eyepiece ("magnifying lens") in place and move it into focus for a sharp image. The eyepiece defines the magnification you get. The Starscope 809 has a standard 1.25" focuser, not the older 24.5mm size. As a result you can choose from hundreds of optional accessories available for 1.25".

  6x30 Finder scope:

  The focuser helps to find and center the object that you wish to see in the telescope. It has a much larger field of view than the telescope and a crosshair.

  

  Further standard accessories:

  ♦ 3 eyepieces (20, 12.5 and 4 mm focal length)
  ♦ 90° diagonal mirror
  ♦ 3x Barlow lens
  ♦ 1.5x erecting lens for terrestrial observations
  ♦ Moon filter (reduces glare)
  ♦ Instruction manual
