The Telescope
The BRESSER Messier NT-203 Telescope is equipped with a parabolic primary mirror, allowing observations that were unattainable in this price range just a few years ago. Modern manufacturing technology enables you to track the shadow of Jupiter's moons on the planet itself; the range of structures and details on Jupiter's surface is breathtaking. The BRESSER Messier NT-203 not only excels at planetary observation: Discover structures in distant galaxies and be fascinated by the filaments of emission nebulae in the vastness of the Milky Way. With the BRESSER Messier NT-203 Telescope, you can observe the remnants of exploded giant stars and the birthplaces of new stars. During the day, you can safely observe sunspots, eclipses, and planetary transits with the secure solar filter. (Warning: Never point the telescope at the sun without a solar filter!)
Let yourself be surprised by the wonders of the universe with this exceptionally large device!
The Mount
The EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC EXOS-2 PMC-Eight GoTo Mount is equipped with a modern and highly precise GoTo control system. It consists of a robust Wi-Fi controller unit that provides all necessary interfaces. The NEMA-11 stepper motors are directly connected to this unit via cable, and an ST-4 compatible autoguider port is also included. The control system supports micro-stepping for precise tracking.
Intuitive operation via app and graphical star map
The ExploreStars app, developed specifically for the PMC-Eight system, impresses with a very well-designed, intuitive graphical interface. The current alignment stars for initializing the control and all sky objects in the database are displayed as a star map with additional text information. All of these objects can be conveniently viewed and selected.
Powerful controller unit with Open GoTo for customization
The heart of the controller unit is a completely autonomous 2-channel multi-processor with 8 CPUs and a Wi-Fi Ethernet 10/100 adapter with IP functionality. This allows remote control via browser, ASCOM, app, or serial connection. The Open GoTo system also enables custom firmware to be written and uploaded to the controller unit, allowing individual customization of the device's functions and the creation of your own object lists, etc.
Polar scope included
The pre-assembled polar finder scope included in the set enables a quick and precise polar alignment, allowing long exposure times without unwanted star trails. The integrated LED illumination unit further enhances the comfort of using the polar finder.
