The GSO Dobsonian 6" DeLuxe 152/1200 M-CRF telescope is equipped with a high-quality primary mirror in the shape of a rotating paraboloid, with a diameter of 152 mm and a focal length of 1200 mm (f/8). The Taiwanese GSO factory is a renowned supplier of high-class optics. The telescope allows you to obtain excellent images of both the objects of the Solar System and star clusters, nebulae and galaxies.
The typical, simple concept of Dobsonian telescopes has been optimized in the GSO DeLuxe series telescopes by implementing a number of useful design improvements.
Observation possibilities The GSO Dobson 6" DeLuxe 152/1200 M-CRF telescope is a universal tool for advanced visual observations of all types of astronomical objects. It will work well in all observing conditions, but - like any astronomical telescope - it loves a dark, rural sky and will show the most under such a sky.
During the observations, we can count on, among others, very successful observations of the following objects:
• craters on the Moon - countless formations, excellent plasticity in the vicinity of the terminator • phases of Mercury and Venus - in the case of the latter, one can try to observe the delicate formations of its atmosphere • ice caps on Mars very clearly visible (it is worth buying red, orange, yellow filters) • belts in Jupiter's atmosphere and their structure, both "tropical" and circumpolar, the Great Red Spot, four of Jupiter's moons • Saturn's ring with the Cassini gap, belts • shields of Uranus and Neptune • many asteroids, including the brightest Ceres and Vesta • comets - icy blocks that travel through the Solar System • hundreds of double, multiple and variable stars • hundreds of Deep Sky objects, including all of the Messier catalog, as well as many from the NGC, IC and Caldwell catalogs; so you will see open clusters like the Crib in Cancer, Hi Chi in Perseus or Ptolemy's Cluster in Scorpius, globular clusters (M13 broken down to 1/2 of its diameter into individual stars, or M53 in Coma Berenices), gas-dust nebulae (the perfectly visible structure of M42 in Orion, North America in Cygnus), galaxies (M31 in Andromeda with its two satellite galaxies, M32 and M110), remnants of the supernova explosion (such as the Veil in Cygnus or the famous Ring (M57) in Lyra) and much, much more. In addition to astronomical observations, this telescope is great for observing and photographing airplanes at cruising altitudes.
Tube The telescope tube is made of metal and is suitably rigid, while the precise and solid frames of the primary and secondary mirrors ensure long-lasting collimation of the telescope. Matte, careful blackening of the interior of the tube minimizes reflections and stray light in the optical system, thus ensuring higher contrast of the obtained images (this is especially important when observing the Moon, planets and bright stars).
Dobsonian mount The weight and dimensions of the telescope are acceptable in relation to the observing possibilities and the size of the mirror - the tube fits on the back seat of virtually any car.
Using the telescope is very simple and there is no problem with assembly and operation by one observer. Like any telescope on a Dobsonian box mount, the setting to the object is done in two axes - the azimuth axis (horizontal) and the elevation (vertical). It differs from competing solutions by definitely better bearings in the azimuth - these are roller bearings, guaranteeing on the one hand the smoothness and lightness of the "walk" of the structure, and on the other - higher precision of setting. Metal bearing tracks prevent biting into the wood of the mount, thanks to which a high durability of the mount structure has been achieved. In the elevation axis there is a new bearing system developed by GSO. The telescope is guided and held by two handles. The desired pressure is adjusted using knobs located on both sides of the mount. This is especially helpful when changing the eyepiece to maintain position and balance. Additionally, the telescope has the ability to correct balance by changing the height of the mount.
Spectacle focuser The telescope is equipped with a high-quality Crayford focuser with a microfocuser with a 1:10 gear ratio. Thanks to this, focusing is very precise even at high magnifications. The focuser is adapted to standard 2" and 1.25" eyepieces.
Advantages of the Crayford focuser: • much smoother and more precise movement when focusing compared to simpler sliding and rotating focusers • thanks to the use of a brass ring ( clamp ring ), the attachment of the glasses becomes more secure, the axial alignment is perfectly maintained and scratching of the surface of the glasses sleeve is avoided • optical tube on Dobsonian mount with ball bearings • 2" Crayford focuser with 1:10 microfocuser • Plossl eyepieces SPL 25 mm and SPL 9 mm (AFOV 52°) / 1.25" • 6x30 finder with crosshair • 1.25" eyepiece extension tube, 35 mm optical path (with brass ring; total length 6.5 cm) • reduction from 2" to 1.25" with brass ring and 2" filter thread (M48x0.75) • dust cover for the front of the tube
