What can I see with a 114mm telescope?

With a 114mm telescope, and on a dark, clear night, an experienced observer can discern point-like objects to about magnitude 13 or 14. Here’s a link to some of the brightest quasars: List of Quasars brighter than 16 magnitude – Stellarium User Guide .

What is the magnification of a 10mm eyepiece?

A short focal length 10mm (high power) eyepiece used on the same 1000mm telescope will produce a magnification of 1000 ÷ 10 = 100x.

What is the magnification of a telescope with a 900 mm focal length and a 20 mm eyepiece?

45x magnification
For example: using a telescope with a 900 mm focal length with a 20 mm eyepiece will give you 45x magnification.

Can I see Jupiter with a 114mm telescope?

A 114mm telescope should be able to see the bands of Jupiter and moons. Test the telescope during the day. Aim it to a tree or building (NOT to the sun!)from a distance and check if they’re clear. If not, either your telescope needs proper collimation or the focus is bad.

How far can you see with a 70mm telescope?

With a 70mm telescope, you will easily be able to see every planet in the Solar System. You will also be able to take a great look at the Moon and clearly distinguish most of its recognizable features and craters. Mars will look great.

Is 6mm eyepiece good?

From my observing experience, the 6-mm Super Monocentric will be the best high definition eyepiece for critical observing one can find. On the other end of complexity, but still providing wonderful contrast, is the 6-mm Ethos. One sharp eyepiece for so many lenses grouped in one eyepiece.

Is a 90x telescope good?

Thus a 90x magification on a very large (wide) telescope would let you see a very large number of things (if you are in an area where the sky is dark), but 90x on a small telescope would let you see a number of interesting things (the Moon, planets, some nebulae and star clusters) but not relatively faint objects.

What can I see with a 90mm telescope?

A 90mm telescope will provide you with a clear view of the Saturn along with its rings, Uranus, Neptune, and Jupiter with its Great Red Spot. You can also expect to see stars with 12 stellar magnitude with a 90mm telescope.

What size telescope eyepiece do I need to see Saturn?

Generally, a premium telescope eyepiece will last a lifetime, and provide the best possible views through your telescope. Many amateur astronomers consider the Tele Vue brand to be at the top of the list. Because you want to Saturn to appear as large as possible, you may be tempted to use a high-magnification eyepiece in the 5-10mm range.

What does Saturn look like from the outside?

The shadows of the rings against the disc of the planet make it appear as a sphere, rather than a flat disc. You’ll also notice that the edges of Saturn appear darker than the center ( limb-darkened ). Saturn looks like a pale yellow marble, that casts a noticeable shadow on to the rings.

Can you see Saturn from the ground with Hubble?

Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 (WDC2) observed Saturn on June 20, 2019, when the planet made its closest approach to Earth (roughly 845 million miles away). Don’t expect to see Saturn like this through a telescope on the ground, but enjoy the exquisite detail in the rings and surface of the planet in this stunning Hubble image.

What is the best lens for astrophotography?

150mm Newtonians are great all-rounders. The short focal length ones (f4 = 600mm focal length to f6 900mm focal length) are especially good for ‘deep sky’ (Galaxies, Nebulae, Star Clusters). Focal ratios of f6 to f8 are good for planetary views too!
