Ningbo ZTL Educational Equipment Co.,Ltd is a astronomical telescope manufacturers .An astronomical telescope is a type of telescope that is specifically designed for observing celestial objects, such as stars, planets, galaxies, and nebulae. It is a teaching instrument that can be used in schools or universities to demonstrate and explain the principles of optics and astronomy.
Astronomical telescopes are available in a variety of designs and configurations, but most of them typically consist of a main optical element, called the objective lens or mirror, that gathers and focuses light, and one or more eyepieces that magnify the image produced by the objective.
There are two main types of astronomical telescopes: refracting telescopes and reflecting telescopes.
Refracting telescopes use lenses to gather and focus light. They typically have long, narrow tubes, and the objective lens is at the front of the tube. They are also known as "refractor" telescopes.
Reflecting telescopes use mirrors to gather and focus light. They typically have shorter, wider tubes, and the objective mirror is at the back of the tube. They are also known as "reflector" telescopes.
A teaching instrument telescope usually is a refracting telescope, as they are more durable, easy to use and maintain compare to reflecting telescope.
An astronomical telescope can be mounted on an equatorial mount, which allows the telescope to be pointed at different objects in the sky by moving it in two directions: right ascension and declination. This mount is also equipped with a clock drive, which allows the telescope to follow the motion of the stars as the Earth rotates.
Astronomical telescopes are often equipped with various accessories, such as star charts, eyepiece filters, and specialized imaging equipment, to enhance the observing experience and allow for more advanced study.
It's important to note that, observing the sky with a telescope can be a challenging task, especially for beginners. It requires a good understanding of the sky, the telescope and a good grasp of the basics of star-hopping and navigation.
