Product description

More about the series Adventure Scope...

Please note: unfortunately the backpack accompanying this telescope was delivered with mildew spots. These can be at least partly removed by washing, but are clearly visible. We are therefore now offering you this set at a particularly attractive price. The contents of the backpack - the telescope and the tripod - are not affected. Take advantage of this bargain!

Meade’s Adventure Scope is the perfect scope for the explorer seeking to observe both day and night objects up close! Available in both 60mm and 80mm apertures, this scope is portable and easy. It’s the ideal telescope for those observing on the go.

The Adventure Scope includes a rugged backpack that is able to fit the OTA, tripod, and accessories, making it the perfect choice for any travelers, hikers, or campers out there who are eager to observe and witness the unknown! The included red dot finder scope, erect-image diagonal, and two eyepieces make locating objects easy.

AC 80/400 telescope: A short tube, uncomplicated instrument for astronomical or terrestrial observing. The 80mm diameter lens is enough for this telescope to view the farthest reaches of the universe at an affordable price. Its short focal length makes this a so-called 'rich field' telescope, making stunning wide angle observing possible. Of course, the resolving power of the refractor is even higher than that of the 70mm version. The higher, 1.14 arc seconds, resolution provides you with a more detailed view when planetary observing. Enjoy seemingly three-dimensional views of the Andromeda Galaxy or the Orion Nebula, with the huge field of view making your observing seem almost like a space walk.

It not only matters which telescope you buy but also where you buy it. Our additional services:

  • We are a leading telescope dealer and know the devices we sell. Our customer service team will gladly help you after your purchase if you have problems with assembly or operation.
  • We provide a copy of the 80-page Telescope ABC beginners handbook with every telescope.
  • We also provide an edition of the exciting astronomy magazine, “Sterne und Weltraum” with each telescope.
