The Levenhuk Blitz 70 BASE telescope is ideal for studying space. On the one hand, it is easy to use; on the other, it can be used to observe a wide range of astronomical objects. Thanks to its aperture (70 mm), you can study the Moon, the planets of the Solar System and bright deep-sky objects in detail. Furthermore, it can be used as a powerful terrestrial telescope for observing landscapes.
This telescope is based on the optical design of an achromatic refractor. Its lenses are made of glass. The optics are coated with an anti-reflective treatment, which ensures a clear and sharp image across the entire field of view. The azimuth fork mount is fitted with a micrometer screw on the vertical axis, allowing the telescope to be accurately aligned with the chosen object. The aluminium tripod is fitted with an accessory tray. The height of the tripod is adjustable.
The kit includes a wide range of accessories, so there is no need to purchase them separately. If desired, the focuser allows you to attach any optical accessory with an eyepiece barrel diameter of 31.75 mm.
