Rating of the best telescopes

Man has always strived to look beyond the visible World and touch the secrets of outer space. Unfortunately, not everyone has access to the observatory and planetarium, but many people want to watch the stars. Today, this exciting activity has become available with the introduction of portable telescopes on the market. They are equipped with high-quality optics and mechanics that expand our understanding of the universe. Small budget options are ideal for aspiring astronomers and will be loved by children. But there are also serious devices that allow you to study the deep sky far beyond the solar system.

We have compiled a list of the best telescopes based on expert opinions and feedback from real customers. Our recommendations will help you make the best choice for your requirements and desires. There are many competitors on the world market for equipment, but we have selected the best manufacturers and recommend that you pay special attention to them:

  1. Celestron
  2. Sky-Watcher

Type: reflector

Type: reflector
The main advantages
  • A reflective telescope with a 130 mm lens is designed to observe the starry sky, both in the field and from your own balcony. You just need to choose a flat surface, set up a tripod and adjust the equatorial mount, orienting the axis to the Pole of the World
  • For the brightness and contrast of the image, the coated glass optics are responsible, the aperture is 5. This is enough to obtain high-quality wide-format astrophotography
  • The model is optimal for observing celestial objects in deep space at low and medium magnifications
  • Another advantage is the ease of observation. The picture, unlike many other telescopes, has a straight orientation, as in ordinary binoculars or a spyglass
Type: reflector
The main advantages
  • An inexpensive tabletop model suitable for a wide range of users. This is an alt-azimuth reflector with 76mm aperture and 300mm focal length
  • A quality rack and pinion focuser works great with a variety of eyepiece options. The kit includes two eyepieces 20 and 4 mm, providing 15x and 75x magnification, respectively. 4 mm buzzer is optimal for observing large objects such as the moon
  • Thanks to its compact size (tube length only 27 cm), even a child can easily handle this telescope. And let it hardly be possible to see the rings of Saturn with its help, you can easily observe the moons of Jupiter, open star clusters and see the Milky Way
  • 4 aperture for wide field of view and reduced exposure for photography
Type: reflector
The main advantages
  • Powerful reflector for visual observation and astro photography. Equipped with 88 cm tube, 114 mm lens diameter. Allows you to observe objects in the solar system, view the Milky Way, the Pleiades and Hyades, the Orion nebula, dumbbell, Crab and much more. With a successful reversal, you can see the rings of Saturn and the Cassini cleft
  • Coated glass optics with multi-layer coating provide clear images without chromatic aberration
  • Equatorial mount is equipped with coordinate circles and fine movement mechanism. To observe objects at high magnifications, the mount can be equipped with a drive system
  • Includes Barlow lens, optical finder and Super 10 and 25mm 1.25 "eyepieces

Type: catadioptric

Type: catadioptric
The main advantages
  • The combined catadioptric scheme, which includes, in addition to a mirror, a meniscus of great curvature and a Piazzi-Smith lens, is free from spherical aberrations, coma and astigmatism
  • A high-quality equatorial mount easily compensates for the daily movement of an object and has a high degree of accuracy
  • Red Dot finder simplifies primary positioning on a selected sky area
  • Ultra-compact size ensures convenient use of equipment in the field and at home
  • Two complete eyepieces with a standard 1.25 '' bore diameter provide a detailed view of the subject or a wide panoramic angle
Type: catadioptric
The main advantages
  • The Maksutov-Cassegrain optocircuit minimizes the risks of the formation of secondary spherical aberrations, coma and astigmatism
  • High-precision equatorial mount supports optional automatic R.A.
  • Rugged, stable tripod that folds out in height with a convenient tray for temporary storage of optical accessories
  • Aluminum housing and compact size of the equipment make it easy to carry and use wherever you want
  • Standard mounting diameter ensures compatibility with a wide range of eyepieces for amateur short throw telescopes
