That is normal. Finder scopes are only used to make objects easy to locate. The image orientation does not matter for observation.

  • Alt-azimuth: easy to use, moves horizontally and vertically
  • Equatorial: enables precise tracking of objects with only one axis – ideal for high magnifications and astrophotography

  • Moon: from 30 mm
  • Planets: from 100 mm
  • Deep sky: from 150 mm

Warning notes
  • General safety instructions DANGER Risk of eye injuries! Never look directly at the sun or near the sun through this device. There is a risk of blindness! Children should only use the device under supervision. Keep packaging materials (plastic bags, rubber bands, etc.) away from children! There is a risk of suffocation! FIRE HAZARD! Do not expose the device especially the lenses to direct sunlight! The light concentration could cause fires. RISK of material damage! Do not dismantle the device! In case of a defect, please contact your dealer. They will contact the service center and may send the device in for repair. Do not expose the device to temperatures above 60°C!
  • Never look at the sun through an eyepiece/telescope without a certified protection filter. A moon filter can never be used for solar observation. The moon filter is only suitable for moon observation. The solar filter must be mounted in front of the telescope opening, not at the eyepiece. Otherwise, the concentrated light beam through the optics will immediately destroy the filter foil, leading to severe eye damage, including permanent blindness.
  • Never leave the optics unattended. Children and inexperienced adults could point the telescope at the sun without proper precautions and lose their eyesight.
  • Do not expose the device to high temperatures.

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 82° Ar Eyepiece 14mm (1,25")
Explore Scientific 82° Series™ extreme wide field eyepieces are optimized to produce high contrast, high resolution, and superior flat field characteristics. The visual effect of these eyepieces with their long eye-relief and their 82° apparent field is truly a full-immersion experience. Your eye is relaxed, allowing you to easily use the "averted vision" technique to study faint details across a huge field-of-view. The 82° Series eyepieces come with a twist-up rubber eye-guard that raise to the desired height for the comfort of the observer, and as experienced astronomers know, eye comfort is critical when trying to observe at the visual limits of the telescope. To keep internal reflections to a minimum, all internal surfaces of the eyepiece barrel are flat black, as well as the edges of the lenses themselves to minimize the scattering of light within the lenses themselves. All 82° Series eyepieces are fully multi-coated and edge-blackened to produce maximum contrast.

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 68° Ar Eyepiece 24mm (1,25")
With the introduction of the 68° Series we are pleased to make two important improvements in eyepiece manufacture, the first being 15 layer Enhanced Multi-layer Deposition (EMD™) coatings on all glass-to-air surfaces to gain maximum contrast, and waterproofing the eyepiece with the use of Argon gas purging instead of standard Nitrogen gas. Although Nitrogen is a fine choice that will last for many years, Argon is a larger molecule that maintains its protective properties over a wider range of temperatures, and is even more resistant to diffusion thereby further extending the protective waterproof environment of the eyepiece body. Through computer-optimized design, a careful selection of optical glasses, and enhanced multi-layer deposition coatings, the Explore Scientific 68° Series™ eyepieces produce long eye-relief and ensure high image-correction, a flat field, and high contrast across the entire image field. An excellent choice for those who make extended visual studies of detail with subtle variations of brightness, and for those who must wear glasses while observing. All 68° Series eyepieces are fully EMD (Enhanced Multi-Layer Deposition) coated and edge-blackened to produce superior contrast.

BRESSER Wi-Fi ClearView Weather Station with 7-in-1 Sensor
The new BRESSER WIFI ClearView Weather Station with 7-in-1 sensor offers a very comprehensive range of weather data. The multifunctional outdoor sensor can easily be installed with the included mounting accessories! The outdoor sensor reliably transmits measured values for wind speed, wind direction, humidity, temperature, precipitation, as well as UV level and light intensity via 868 MHz frequency to the base station. The base station shows a large variety of current and historical local weather data on its 8.3'' TRUE BLACK colour display. The latter allows internal storage and evaluation of the measurement data over a period of 24 hours. A very reliable forecast for the upcoming 12h is calculated by your local weather data which will be displayed on the base station. The WIFI function allows users to share their local data via apps such as 'Weather Underground'' or ''Weather Cloud''. In addition, the WIFI function enables Internet Time Synchronization and firmware updates. An alarm can be individually programmed for maximum and minimum values, which triggers both an acoustic and a light alarm signal when the specified value is reached. For outside temperatures from -3°C, a special alarm can also be activated for frost/ice warnings. A poor indoor climate often poses health risks, especially for children and elderly people. The BRESSER WIFI ClearView Weather Station offers a smart feature for this. The indoor climate indicator informs about current indoor climate conditions by means of the room climate indicator. For all ''moon addicts'' the different moon phases are also displayed. An alarm clock with snooze function is also included in the range of functions. This station can also be connected to the mulitlingual portal AWEKAS* (*EU customers only) . Optionally you can transmit your weather data to AWEKAS or call up your weather data worldwide. Transfer data such as air temperature, humidity, soil temperature and humidity, pool water temperature to your smart home home control system. FEATURES8.3'' colour display (19.3 x 9.3 cm) for detailed time and weather information WIFIconnection Internet time synchronization Receives weather data from the 7-in-1 sensor and the wireless thermo-hygro sensor via 868 MHz Publish your local data from your weather station on platforms like 'Weather Underground'', ''Weather Cloud" and "AWEKAS*" (*EU customers only)Display of time, calendar, weekday and moon phase wake-up function Ice/Frost warning Interior temperature (°C / °F) Humidity with comfort display Outdoor temperature (°C / °F) Display of UV level and light intensity Display of gusts and average wind speed Wind direction (exact display based on 16 directions) Rainfall (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, total rainfall) Weather forecast (sunny, partly cloudy, cloudy, rainy, stormy, snowy) Air pressure display Perceived outdoor temperature weather index for dew point, wind chill factor and heat index Min/max value memory (up to 24 hours) Alarm with LED display Weather Calibration 3 different display brightness levels: High / Low / Off 7 languages for the weekday Support of firmware updates Security type: supports WPA3 encryptionSupport a wireless 7-in-1 sensor with 150 m transmission range (included) Supports up to 7 additional wireless sensors (optional) (Art.-No.: 7009999) Integrated WIFI transmission to AWEKAS* (*EU customers only) Good to know: The sensor pairs with multiple base stations at once – perfect if you want to keep an eye on conditions in different rooms.What's IncludedBase station Outdoor sensor 7-in-1 incl. mounting accessories Power supply unit and cable, batteries not included
