The Discovery Channel informs, entertains and inspires its audience around the world about the wonders of our planet, its diversity and its surprises. By offering millions of people the chance to make new discoveries and satisfy their curiosity, Discovery provides an engaging mix of storytelling across a range of genres: science and technology, exploration, adventure, history, and a behind-the-scenes look at the people, places and organisations that shape the world we live in.
We are proud to present the Discovery range of optical instruments, manufactured by Levenhuk and sponsored by Discovery.
The Discovery Basics EK70 kit is specially designed for the most passionate explorers who want to learn as much as possible about the world around them and therefore need all sorts of equipment. It includes optical instruments, orienteering equipment, items for biological field research and even a notebook in which to record your most extraordinary discoveries. The kit comes with a rucksack that can easily hold all the equipment, so you can travel in comfort.
It is important to carry an optical instrument when exploring an area whilst on a trekking excursion. This set includes a small pair of roof-prism binoculars for observing birds and animals and, if necessary, finding the path.
Furthermore, it is essential that hikers and tourists carry a compass, a torch and a whistle. The compass is used to determine the best direction to take. This kit includes a classic liquid-filled model with an arrow pointing north. The head torch helps you explore dimly lit areas and find your way in complete darkness. Battery-powered, it has a practical mount that allows the beam to be angled by 45°. The whistle is essential for sending out clearly audible signals, which are particularly important in an emergency.
And that’s not all: the kit also contains plenty of items for exploring the world around us: a butterfly net and an insect trap; tweezers and various containers for collecting samples, including biological ones; magnifying glasses for studying small objects and a notepad on which to jot down your observations and findings. Another fantastic bonus is the inclusion of some toy insects in the kit.
