The Sky Watcher 130mm Newtonian Telescope (A buyer's guide)

[neil19781978]

I bought one of these and saw Jupiter within minutes of setting it up. I can't wait to see Saturn.

Bought this telescope from The Astronomy & Nature Centre place, a brilliant supplier, highly recommended.

i have a Newtonian Telescope but sometimes when i look threw the eyepiece i see a blurry image every where i look but the next day its fine not sure what this means

@m4n52k10 Hi - it sounds as though the secondary mirror (the mirror near the focuser at the top of the tube) may be dewing up. When this happens remove the eyepiece and shine a torch into the scope and examine the surface of the mirror for dew. Hope this helps. Regards A&NC

There's a black version of the 130mm, is there any difference?

[AstronomyAndNatureTV]

@xVeraful Hi there, thanks for watching! The change of livery colour does not, to the best of our knowledge, mark any design change of the telescope mechanics or optics. A&NC

Excellent video. Very well explained. Thank you for doing this and sharing your knowledge. I've just bought a telescope and am going now to collect it so will probably be watching this many times tonight!
