That is normal. Finder scopes are only used to make objects easy to locate. The image orientation does not matter for observation.

  • Alt-azimuth: easy to use, moves horizontally and vertically
  • Equatorial: enables precise tracking of objects with only one axis – ideal for high magnifications and astrophotography

  • Moon: from 30 mm
  • Planets: from 100 mm
  • Deep sky: from 150 mm

Product information "BRESSER Nebula Goto Kit EXOS-2"

Do it like the pros...

You already own a BRESSER EXOS-2 mount and want to take a big step forward? Then set off for new astronomical shores with the new Nebula Goto Kit. This modern system offers you several options for control.

You can operate the mount directly via its own Nebula control interface using your smartphone or tablet (iOS and Android supported). Alternatively, you can also use a planetarium software like SkySafari.

Of course, manual control remains an option. For this, a handbox for minor corrections or simple control commands is included in the delivery.

Moreover, with the BRESSER Nebula Goto Kit, you can connect your laptop or PC directly via WLAN or LAN cable (recommended for faster data transmission) to the Nebula control unit. This not only gives you full control over the mount, but also allows you to connect several devices such as cameras, motor focus, filter wheel, etc., directly to the control unit via various USB ports. This eliminates the need to connect each device to your computer via cables. The pre-installed program KStars / EKOS lets you comfortably control all devices from your PC or laptop.

Electronic polar alignment or guiding can also be easily implemented with the Goto Kit, provided you have a camera connected. Additionally, you are not limited to the software of the Nebula control unit. Thanks to the installed ASCOM Alpaca driver, you can use your own programs on your computer to control the mount - be it Stellarium or N.I.N.A. The two stepper motors with a belt drive ensure a smooth, direct drive of the two axes. It is only important to have a good balance.



FEATURES

  • Belt drive for more precise, quieter tracking
  • Stepper motors with high resolution (0.36´/microstep)
  • Hand control box for direct control of the mount
  • Virtual hand control box for smartphones and tablets
  • PC control – ASCOM compatible
  • USB ports for cameras, motors, filter wheels, etc.

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 2" CLS Nebula Filter
Besides air turbulence, the brightening of the night sky is the biggest obstacle to observing faint objects beyond the solar system. Street lamps and other artificial lighting mean that the sky in human settlements is no longer really black. This affects the contrast and thus the perception of deep-sky objects. Depending on the type of celestial object, however, part of disturbing artificial light can be filtered out, making it easier to observe fainter targets.The EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC CITY LIGHT SUPRESSION - or CLS - filter uses the fact that the artificial lighting is not evenly distributed over the entire spectrum. These colours - in the case of the EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC CLS nebula filter, above all the typical colours of mercury and high-pressure lamps, used in street lighting - are suppressed, but the emissions of deep-sky objects are allowed through. With a slightly brightened sky, some relatively bright deep-sky objects are practically invisible with a telescope, for example the large galaxy M101. Using this filter makes observation much easier. A must have for any visual amateur astronomer.  The CLS can also be used as a useful photographic filter - helping to improve the quality of your telescopic deep sky photos.The EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC nebula filters are delivered with an individual test report - so you can be sure of receiving high-quality filters.SPECIFICATIONS:eliminates disturbing light - e.g. from street lightingenables observation of faint deep sky objectsWHAT'S INCLUDED:1x nebula filter
