Amazing Celestial Spectacle: 7 Planets at a Glance
Image created with Stellarium – View on 22 January 2025, 6 PM (CET) – Location: Bocholt, NRW, Germany
The night sky is treating us to an extraordinary event right now: a rare celestial alignment known as a "planetary parade". For the next six weeks or so, six planets – Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Venus, and Saturn – will form a striking line across the heavens. This rare phenomenon is a perfect opportunity to observe our neighbouring planets in detail. However, spotting Uranus and Neptune can be tricky. While the brighter planets are easy to see with the naked eye, the two ice giants appear much fainter due to their incredible distance from Earth and are only visible through a telescope. The show becomes even more spectacular at the end of February, when Mercury joins the line-up as the seventh planet.
What Makes This Planet Parade So Special?
It’s not unusual to see a few planets in the night sky at the same time – three planets aligning happens roughly once a year. But seeing more than five planets at once is a rare treat that only comes around every 10 to 20 years. These alignments occur because each planet orbits the Sun at a different speed, making such configurations infrequent and special. During this alignment, you’ll also get the chance to witness some close encounters known as conjunctions. On 3 February, Venus will appear side by side with Neptune, while on 25 February, Mercury will sit right next to Saturn. Don’t miss this incredible chance to explore the wonders of our solar system – it’s a sight you’ll remember for years to come.
Top Tips for Observing
To get the best view of this cosmic event, head to a dark location well away from city lights. The ideal time to observe is shortly after sunset until around 9:30 PM (CET). If you’re unsure where to look, astronomy apps like Stellarium are great tools to help pinpoint the planets. Here’s a tip: unlike stars, planets don’t twinkle. If you own a telescope, consider using special filters to enhance the details of these celestial giants and make the most of the experience.
NEW - now including a high-quality aperture Solar-filter for safe observation of sunspots, eclipses and planet transits. Great telescope for night and solar observation. The BRESSER Messier 6 inch Planetary Dobson is something very special. Despite its low price, it offers a variety of functions and quality, which you sometimes look for in the considerably more expensive devices in vain. With an aperture diameter of 150 mm and a focal length of 1200 mm of this high quality BRESSER newtonian optics, the observation of the moon, the planets and planetary nebulae is particularly well possible. Craters and grooves of the moon as well as the fast changing shadows cast by the so-called terminator line are exciting observation targets. Saturn with its impressive ring, Jupiter with its bands of clouds and the movement of its easily visible moons, the crescent shape of Venus and the glowing red Mars are good examples of what this telescope can be used for.
Because of the long basic focal length you can easily achieve the high magnifications required for this purpose with this telescope. You do not need expensive special eyepieces. In short, this is a telescope primarily for detailed observation. Nevertheless bright deep sky objects like the Orion Nebula or the galaxies Messier 81 and 82 etc. can be observed as well.
Also photography is no problem with this tube. Here is another strength of this telescope: if you want to take pictures, you can simply unscrew the altitude wheels from the tube and put them on a EQ mount with an optionally available dovetail rail - and nothing more stands in the way of astrophotography. The included eyepiece adapter has the common T2 connection thread (M42x0.75mm), to which almost every standard camera can be attached. Only the camera specific T2 adapter ring is additionally required. Of course, also common USB planetary cameras with 1.25 inch or 2 inch plug diameter can be used directly with this telescope. With the original equipment you can observe immediately - an optical 6x30 viewfinder and a 25 mm SPL eyepiece are included. For those who want to transport the device as compact as possible, the new 6'' BRESSER Messier Planet Dobson makes it very easy - the rocker box can be disassembled in a few easy steps, because the parts are assembled with metal quick connectors. So a bulky rocker box quickly turns into a handy flat package of boards.
A telescope whose versatility, performance and user-friendliness set new standards in this price class. Please note that Newtonian reflector telescopes are very good for astronomical observations of the starry sky, but are not well suited for observing nature and landscapes during the day. For nature and landscape observations we therefore recommend BRESSER lens telescopes.

Perfect for ambitious planetary observers: the set consists of the BRESSER Messier AR-152L/1200 Telescope and the modern EXOS-2 PMC-Eight GoTo Mount. With the large aperture and long focal length of 1200 mm, the high-quality optics deliver razor-sharp, high-contrast images that impress with every observation. The telescope is especially suitable for detailed views of Mars, Jupiter, and other celestial bodies. You can also explore the sun using the included objective filter. The mount is equipped with a precise GoTo control and is very easy to use with the intuitive ExploreStars App. Thanks to the extremely accurate tracking, the selected celestial object is guaranteed to always stay in the field of view.
The Telescope
For demanding planetary observers, the BRESSER Messier AR-152L is the dream device. Discover structures in Jupiter’s cloud bands, the finest grooves and craters on the moon’s surface, and structures on Mars, including the ice-covered polar caps of our neighboring planet! Observe the dance of Jupiter’s moons around the planet and discover the greenish glow of Uranus far beyond Saturn’s orbit. The combination of large aperture and long focal length enables sharp, high-contrast images that will impress you every time. And with the high-quality objective solar filter, you can also safely observe our own star. (Caution: Never point the telescope at the sun without a solar filter!)
The Mount
The EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC EXOS-2 PMC-Eight GoTo Mount is equipped with a modern and very precise GoTo control system. It consists of a robust Wi-Fi controller unit that provides all the necessary interfaces. The NEMA-11 stepper motors are directly connected to this unit via cable, and an ST-4 compatible autoguider interface is also available. In addition, the control system supports micro-stepping to ensure precise tracking.
Intuitive operation via app and graphical star chart
The ExploreStars App, developed specifically for the PMC-Eight system, impresses with a very well-designed, intuitive user interface. The currently available alignment stars for initializing the control system, as well as all celestial objects in the database, are displayed as a star chart with additional text information. All these objects can be easily viewed and selected.
Powerful controller unit with Open GoTo for customization
The heart of the controller unit consists of a completely autonomous 2-channel multi-processor with 8 CPUs and a Wi-Fi Ethernet 10/100 adapter with IP function. This allows remote operation via browser, ASCOM, app, or serial connection. The Open GoTo also allows you to write your own firmware and upload it to the controller unit. This enables custom adjustments to the device’s functions as well as the creation of custom object lists, etc.
Polar finder included
The included and pre-installed polar finder scope allows for quick and precise alignment and long exposure times without unwanted star trails. The integrated LED lighting unit further enhances the comfort of using the polar finder.

Open the case and you're ready to go: The BRESSER Arcturus 60/700 AZ lens telescope shows you the fascinating world of star clusters and planets. This complete set contains everything you need for your first steps into sky observation: an astronomical lens telescope with 60 mm aperture and 700 mm focal length, an azimuthal mount, a tripod and lots of accessories. The system is very easy to handle and therefore ideal for introducing children to astronomy as a hobby. And since there are so many beautiful things to discover on Earth as well, the telescope is suitable for observing nature and landscapes.
Simply an astro-classic – the telescope
With this classic lens telescope – a so-called Fraunhofer achromatic refractor – even beginners and children can easily gain new insights into the night sky. Thanks to the modern, precisely coated optics, the starter telescope offers good imaging properties. A sharp image with good contrast – this is ensured by the large focal ratio of about 1 to 11.7 (F/11.7), which results from the ratio of the 60 mm aperture to the 700 mm focal length. Perfect for exploring our Moon, the planets, but also open star clusters and globular clusters.
And what about the magnification? The 60 mm aperture provides a resolving power that easily allows magnifications up to about 120x with really sharp images. Technically, even more is possible with this beginner’s telescope – up to 175x with the included accessories. However, as the magnification increases, the image can become more and more blurred. How much magnification is actually possible depends not only on the telescope, but also on the air turbulence in the atmosphere (seeing conditions).
The foundation for moving impressions – mount and tripod
For your nighttime observations, attach your telescope to the height-adjustable aluminium tripod with azimuthal mount. Thanks to its extremely easy operation, you can enjoy effortless astronomical explorations with this azimuthal mount. Just like with a normal photo tripod, you simply turn the starter telescope by hand up and down, to the left and right. To ensure that your eyepieces, compass, star map etc. are always within reach, simply place your accessories on the practical storage plate located between the tripod legs.
Everything for a good start in astronomy – the accessories
In the sturdy hard-top case, in which you can store the beginner's telescope perfectly and take it safely with you on your travels, you will also find lots of accessories.
The 5x24 finder is a small miniature telescope that you simply mount parallel to the actual telescope. With its weak 5x magnification and integrated crosshair, it helps you keep track of the starry sky. So it allows you to easily find celestial objects and precisely align the telescope – before you then enjoy the view with the higher magnification.
And how high the magnification is depends on which of the three included eyepieces (4 mm; 12.5 mm; 20 mm) you are currently using. To change the magnification, simply insert another one into the telescope's focuser. If at some point you want to change your field of view with additional eyepieces: no problem! The 1.25 inch (31.7 mm) socket diameter complies with an international and cross-manufacturer standard, so you can combine a wide range of optional eyepieces with your telescope.
For a comfortable view at any time, you will also find a 90-degree diagonal mirror in the scope of delivery. Otherwise, you would have to lie down under the starter telescope in order to achieve good observation results when the optics are pointed upwards into the sky. Instead, you simply look in comfortably from the side.
In addition to the night sky, the Earth also offers many captivating sights. That's why the 1.5x erecting lens turns the image the right side around, so that you can devote your entry-level telescope to observing nature and landscapes during day.
However, because orientation in the night sky is not as easy as on our daytime planet, a compass and star map are included in the set. This way you always know where to look and what you will see there.
Enjoy a quick start to the exciting hobby of astronomy with the BRESSER Arcturus 60/700 AZ lens telescope including all accessories.

Thanks to the built-in motors in both axes of the azimuthal mount, the target object is automatically tracked so that you can sit back and enjoy the night sky.
Explore the night sky with the Maksutov telescope
Featuring a long focal length of 1250 mm, this telescope is ideal for making exciting discoveries in the solar system and beyond. Take a close look at the gas clouds on Jupiter, or watch the rings of Saturn through the telescope for the first time with your own eyes. Thanks to the 90 mm aperture, the telescope collects about 165 times more light than the human eye. However, it's not just the planets that look stunning through the high-quality optics. It's also worth venturing further afield into space: marvel at the sight of the Orion Nebula, 1,344 light years from Earth, or the famous Ring Nebula M57 in the constellation Lyra. The two included eyepieces with 25 mm and 12.5 mm focal lengths will show you these objects and many others at 50 or 100 times magnification. And because the best observation spots are usually not found in your immediate vicinity, the telescope features a compact Cassegrain design for easy transport. If there is a stable table at your observation site, you can even leave the tripod at home.
Everything you need for exploring the night sky
The telescope also allows you to capture images of the night sky. Simply attach the smartphone holder to the eyepiece, and take snapshots of planets, open star clusters and other night sky objects. The telescope is also ideal for observing and taking photos of the moon. In order to comfortably watch Earth's natural satellite through your Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope, it is best to use the included moon filter. The moon filter darkens the image slightly and increases the contrast to provide a more comfortable view. Perfect for exploring fascinating moon craters, lunar seas and shadows in the twilight zone! The telescope also comes with a star chart to help you navigate the night sky with its mythically named constellations.

Taking off to the stars from your own balcony – with this complete astronomy set that is easily done. The compact Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope with 90 mm aperture and 1250 mm focal length fits everywhere. And thanks to the high contrast, you will be amazed by fascinating insights into outer space even while standing in the brightly lit city. Especially the Sun, Moon and planets look great through the high-quality optics of the beginner's telescope. The set includes everything you need for successful sky observation: an astronomical Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope with 90 mm aperture and 1250 mm focal length, an equatorial EQ-3 mount, a tripod and extensive accessories. The system impresses with its simple operation, which makes life easier for astronomy beginners in particular. Thanks to its compact dimensions, the powerful telescope is also ideal as a travel telescope for more experienced stargazers.
A great combination – the telescope
The decisive advantage of the Maksutov-Cassegrain construction: the powerful optics have a long focal length, but can still be easily transported due to their very compact design. The recipe for success is the combined optics of mirrors and lenses with very good imaging properties.
The 90 mm aperture admits a lot of light into the beginner's telescope and thus ensures a good resolution. In addition, 90 mm aperture and 1250 mm focal length result in an extremely large focal ratio (ratio of aperture to focal length) of 1 to 13.9 (F/13.9). The impressive result: a very sharp image with excellent contrast. Moon, Sun and planets – especially the celestial bodies in our immediate vicinity are more than worth a look through the BRESSER Messier MC-90/1250 Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope for beginners. But various deep-sky objects are also a sight to behold: go on a discovery tour through space and marvel at open star clusters, globular clusters and so-called planetary nebulae such as the fascinating Dumbbell Nebula M27. Thanks to the resolution of the 90 mm aperture, you can enjoy really sharp images at magnifications of up to about 180x. The technology allows more, but you have to reckon with blurriness at higher magnifications. In addition to your telescope, the air turbulence in the atmosphere (seeing conditions) also determines how much you can actually magnify.
Your astronomy start is on a firm footing – mount and tripod
The beginner's telescope comes with a height-adjustable aluminium tripod and an equatorial EQ-3 mount – the perfect basis for your exploration of the universe. The special feature of the equatorial mount: you only need to compensate for the movement of the celestial bodies on one axis instead of two. You simply align this axis parallel to the Earth's axis by pointing it approximately at the polar star – a procedure also known as "alignment". For sensitive and comfortable adjustment and tracking, the mount is also equipped with two flexible shafts with fine adjustment. Always ready to hand for every celestial highlight – to this end, your accessories will find their place on the storage plate between the tripod legs.
Keep track of things automatically: For this telescope’s equatorial EQ-3 mount, the tracking motor with item number 4951400 is available as an optional accessory. This eliminates the need to manually track a celestial object set in the telescope. When this motor is installed at the mount, it automatically tracks the celestial object, keeping it in the field of view of the eyepiece. This makes observing the night sky even more comfortable!
Everything for stunning stargazing – the accessories
With the complete astronomy set, your observations will be under a lucky star. The LED viewfinder, which is easily mounted parallel to the telescope, allows you to keep an overview of the night sky. For this purpose, a red dot is projected onto a small ground-glass screen inside the viewfinder. This dot appears to be floating in front of the sky when you look through the viewfinder. And it does so exactly where the aperture of the telescope is pointing. Thus, precise alignment and finding celestial objects becomes super simple!
The 26 mm Plössl eyepiece shows greatness in every respect: With it, you can enjoy 48x magnification with very good imaging properties on this telescope. Would you like to look even closer? Then extend your set with additional eyepieces. Because the socket diameter of 31.7 mm (1.25 inch) corresponds to an international and manufacturer-independent standard, you have a wide choice.
A comfortable view into the beginner's telescope at all times – this is ensured by the built-in 90-degree star diagonal mirror. So you can look in from the side with ease, even if your telescope is pointing vertically upwards into the sky.
It's not just the night sky that fascinates astronomers with beautiful views. Set out with the solar filter to explore our nearest star. Sunspots and granulation on the Sun are guaranteed to amaze you.
ATTENTION: Never point the telescope at the Sun without the solar filter!
What could be better than reliving unforgettable moments? With the smartphone adapter, the beginner's telescope becomes a giant lens for your mobile phone in no time. So you can easily capture and share your favourite moments with the Moon, Sun etc.
