Eyepiece:

An eyepiece is a viewing system comprised of one or more lenses. The eyepiece magnies the clear image

generated at the focal point of a lens.

There is a simple formula for calculating magnication:

Focal width of the telescope tube / Focal width of the eyepiece

= Magnication

In a telescope, the magnication depends on both the focal width of the telescope tube and the focal width

of the eyepiece.

Magnication:

The magnication corresponds to the difference between observation with the naked eye and observation

through a magnication apparatus (e.g. a telescope). Observation with the naked eye is considered single, or

1x magnication. Accordingly, if a telescope has a magnication of 30X, then an object viewed through the

telescope will appear 30 times larger than it would with the naked eye. Also see Eyepiece.

Possible objects for observation:

We have compiled and explained a number of very interesting celestial bodies and star clusters for you. On the

accompanying images at the end of the instruction manual (Page 33), you can see how objects will appear in

good viewing conditions through your telescope using the eyepieces that came with it.

The Moon

The moon is the Earth’s only natural satellite.

Diameter: 3,476 km

Distance: approx. 384,400 km from Earth

The moon has been known to humans since prehistoric times. It is the second brightest object in the sky (after

the sun). Because the moon circles the Earth once per month, the angle between the Earth, the moon and the

sun is constantly changing; one sees this change in the phases of the moon. The time between two consecutive

new moon phases is about 29.5 days (709 hours).

Orion Nebula (M 42)

M 42 in the Orion constellation

Distance: 1,344 light years from Earth

With a distance of about 1,344 light years from the Earth, the Orion Nebula (Messier 42, abbreviation: M 42) is

the brightest diffuse nebula in the sky. It is visible with the naked eye and a rewarding object for telescopes of

all sizes, from the smallest eld glass to the largest earthbound observatories and the Hubble Space Telescope.

When talking about Orion, we’re actually referring to the main part of a much larger cloud of hydrogen gas and

dust, which spreads out over the half of the Orion constellation. The expanse of this enormous cloud stretches

several hundred light years.

Ring Nebula in Lyra constellation (M 57)

M 57 in the Lyra constellation

Distance: 2,412 light years from Earth

The famous Ring Nebula (M 57) in the constellation of Lyra is often viewed as the prototype of a planetary

nebula; it is one of the magnicent features of the Northern Hemisphere’s summer sky. Recent studies have

shown that it is probably comprised of a ring (torus) of brightly shining material that surrounds the central star

(only visible with larger telescopes), and not of a gas structure in the form of a sphere or an ellipse.
