It provides enough light-gathering power to move beyond the Moon and planets and begin exploring brighter nebulae, star clusters and galaxies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIts \u003cstrong\u003ef\/7.1 Newtonian optical system\u003c\/strong\u003e makes this an excellent choice for learning traditional visual astronomy, while the equatorial mount introduces the observer to polar alignment and accurate manual tracking of objects across the night sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e130mm Newtonian Optics – More Light, More to Explore\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAperture makes a major difference to what a telescope can reveal. With a \u003cstrong\u003e130mm primary mirror\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Omegon 130\/920 gathers substantially more light than smaller beginner instruments such as a 114mm Newtonian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplied specification gives a \u003cstrong\u003elight-gathering capacity of 350\u003c\/strong\u003e, together with a limiting magnitude of \u003cstrong\u003e12.4\u003c\/strong\u003e. This provides enough reach to make many brighter deep-sky objects accessible from suitably dark observing locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e920mm focal length\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ef\/7.1 focal ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e also provide a useful range of magnifications using conventional 1.25-inch eyepieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDiscover the Moon and Planets\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 130mm aperture provides plenty of potential for exploring the Solar System. The Moon reveals craters, mountain ranges, plains and fine shadow detail, particularly around the lunar terminator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eJupiter can show its principal atmospheric belts and four bright Galilean moons, while Saturn's ring system is an impressive target. Mars can also reveal detail when it is favourably positioned and observing conditions are suitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe formal specification gives a resolving capacity of \u003cstrong\u003e0.88 arcseconds\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003emaximum useful magnification of 260x\u003c\/strong\u003e. Actual usable magnification will depend on atmospheric seeing, optical collimation and the target being observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMove Beyond the Solar System\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the advantages of moving up to a 130mm reflector is the opportunity to explore more deep-sky objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUnder suitably dark skies, the telescope can be used to observe \u003cstrong\u003eopen and globular star clusters, brighter nebulae and galaxies\u003c\/strong\u003e. Objects such as the Orion Nebula and Ring Nebula provide an introduction to a very different type of astronomy from lunar and planetary observing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of 130mm aperture and 920mm focal length therefore makes the telescope a versatile first instrument for discovering a broad range of celestial targets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCollimatable Newtonian Optical System\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCorrect optical alignment is important if a Newtonian reflector is to perform at its best. The Omegon 130\/920 provides \u003cstrong\u003ecollimation adjustment for both the primary and secondary mirrors\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis allows the mirrors to be correctly aligned when required, helping the telescope deliver the sharpest image its optics and observing conditions permit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e1.25-Inch Rack-and-Pinion Focuser\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe optical tube is fitted with a conventional \u003cstrong\u003e1.25-inch rack-and-pinion focuser\u003c\/strong\u003e, allowing it to accept standard 1.25-inch astronomical eyepieces and compatible filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAn important detail in the supplied product information is the included \u003cstrong\u003efocuser extension adaptor\u003c\/strong\u003e.
