Description

The primary mirror is made of pyrex for greater inertia to temperature differences, has a parabolic surface, which eliminates the spherical aberration error that spherical mirrors suffer from. The secondary mirror is supported by a cross arrangement of metal sheets, which are only 0.5mm thick, to minimize the diffraction phenomenon and light loss. Additionally, the model features a 2″ focuser and a 1.25″ adapter, making it possible to use eyepieces of both calibers.

The Dobsonian telescopes from SkyWatcher are equipped with the effective tension control handle, which is a patent of SkyWatcher.

    foivos_hiperion12mm

    Unparalleled telescope for dark skies. The journey with this telescope is amazing. I have had it for 3 years and I have seen everything: the solar system, the Orion Nebula, the fantastic galaxy of Andromeda. It is a dream. I highly recommend it, but you need good lenses. I have the Hypperion 5mmhe and the 31mm Barlow Televue 3x. Let's have great observations and clear skies.
