Galileo Super Glide Models 80x800
FS-85MOHDX Multiple Ocular Holder Deluxe Telescope is mounted on Galileo's Super
Glide Altitude Azimuth mount. It's easy use up and down, left and right movement
is great for beginners and casual star gazers alike. It also makes terrestrial
viewing easy when the included 1.5x erecting lens is used. The Super Glide mount
of this Galileo Reflector Telescope features slow motion controls in both axis
for precision adjustments. The Mount of this Galileo Reflector Telescope is
attached to a very sturdy, fully adjustable, pre-assembled metal tripod with
retractable rubber feet. The tripod also features an accessory tray with slots
to place 4 1¼ eyepieces or lenses. Additionally, the Galileo Multiple Ocular
Holder (MOH) is included, enabling the user to quickly switch between 3
eyepieces simply by rotating the bezel of the MOH. The optical tube assembly
attaches to the mount of the telescope by an adjustable tube clamp which in
combination with the adjustable counter balance weights ensures easy fluid
movement of the telescope at all times. The telescope tube features heavy duty
metal primary and secondary mirror cells. The focuser is a heavy duty 1¼ metal
helical rack and pinion focuser. The Galileo 80x800 optical tube assembly
features an 800mm focal length. The Primary mirror is a 80mm heavy duty mirror
cell with push / pull collimation screws. The primary mirror is aluminized with
Silicon Monoxide Quartz overcoat providing 92% reflectivity and a resolving
power of 1.4 arc seconds. The secondary mirror has an obstruction of
approximately 25% linear (approximately 6% of the total area). The optical tube
assembly is diffraction limited at λ4 (1/4 wave in Sodium light). The
finderscope is Galileo's Mars' Eye electronic Finderscope which helps by getting
the observer behind the telescope without losing the surrounding field of view
when targeting objects. Included with the FS-85MOHDX are a 1¼ 6.8mm to 16mm zoom
eyepiece (42 degree apparent field of view @ 6.8mm), a 1¼ 20mm eyepiece (52
degree apparent field of view) and a 3 element 3x Barlow.
