The Konus Konustart-900B Refractor Telescope is an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced observers. The Konustart 900B comes with an RA stepper motor and a variety of accessories, offering numerous possibilities. The telescope can be mounted on a stable aluminum tripod, which can be adjusted in height from 69 to 116 cm. With the included 45º diagonal mirror, you can enjoy our universe in a very relaxed position. The luxurious carrying case allows for everything to be neatly stored and easily transported to other locations.
Usage of the Konus Konustart-900B
With the Konustart 900B, you have a refractor telescope that is suitable for both astronomical and terrestrial observations. The image is reflected by the included erecting prism. When observing celestial bodies, this mirrored image does not interfere. However, for terrestrial views, it is necessary to have the image mirrored. The included erecting prism also provides an additional 1.5x magnification. Combined with one of the supplied eyepieces, the magnification can reach up to 113x.
Usage of the RA Stepper Motor
The Konustart 900B is very easy to adjust with its knobs, allowing for smooth and precise movements. With the RA stepper motor, it is possible to automatically track objects without having to manually operate the telescope. As the Earth rotates, the object will drift out of view if you do not move the telescope accordingly. Additionally, with this RA stepper motor, it is possible to capture images of the celestial bodies you observe using the included smartphone adapter.
