The telescope tube sits on a movable mount that allows it to point at and track objects in the sky. The mount shown is equitorial, meaning that it can be aligned to the north star for easier tracking of other stars and planets as they move accross the sky. The mount has a counterweight to help balance the wieght of the telescope tube. The entire assembly sits on the three legs of a tripod. When pointed at the sky, light enters the optical tube through it's aperture. The aperture is the circular end of the tube that allows light to enter when uncovered. Once light has entered the telescope, it is gathered and directed to the eyepiece by mirrors. The lenses in the eyepeice take this light and bring an image to focus for a human to see. The finderscope is a second smaller telescope attached the optical tube. It has lower magnification than the telescope, and this makes finding onjects and pointing the telescope easier. | 0.274913 |
