The Discovery Spark Travel 60 telescope will be appreciated by any budding astronomy enthusiast. The refractor comes in a colourful gift box which, in addition to the telescope itself, contains all the necessary accessories, such as a tripod, a carrying case and the educational book “Space. Empty or Not Empty’. This colourful illustrated guide offers a wealth of useful information about the night sky, helping you build a solid theoretical foundation before you begin your observations.

The Discovery Spark Travel 60 model offers good performance for studying the lunar surface and observing terrestrial objects during the day. The brightest objects in interplanetary and cosmic space can be seen as points of light. The telescope’s lenses are made of optical glass with an anti-reflective coating, which improves image quality and sharpness. Furthermore, the optics are achromatic, meaning no chromatic aberration can interfere with image formation.

The telescope’s optical tube is mounted on a simple altazimuth fork mount to allow movement along the altitude and azimuth axes. There is a locking knob for smoother and more precise adjustment. This telescope can be easily assembled and set up by users of any skill level. The tripod is made of aluminium and features a central tray. The compartments in the tray are useful for storing accessories, of which the kit is well-equipped: 4 eyepieces, a mirrored diagonal and a powerful 3x Barlow lens.
