The Sky-Watcher SW1025AZGT: One Great Astronomical Ride The LightChariot 102AR delivers substantially higher resolution and brighter images compared to an 80mm lens, thus permitting more advanced study of objects in the solar system and deep-space. The Moon, for instance, reveals a treasure trove of smaller craters, rills, and fault lines all but invisible in an 80mm telescope. In deep-space, M13 is often revealed as a fuzzy, luminous cotton ball in an 80mm telescope. In a 102mm telescope, M13 begins to take on the appearance of a beehive of many discrete star points buzzing around the central core. Prominent emission nebulae look brighter and reveal more of their surrounding gaseous extensions in a 102mm instrument. Galaxies, often exceeding faint, are more easily located with a 102mm aperture. Terrestrially, conditions permitting, breathtaking detail can be observed in nature, distant landmarks, and people. Read a license-plate clearly from half a mile away. When comparing image quality between reflectors and refractors, aperture for aperture, refractors deliver the most pristine, near text-book perfect imaging available. Sky-Watcher LightChariot 102AR-AZ objective lenses are pitch polished to rigorous standards of optical quality under the close supervision of a highly skilled optician ensuring optimum performance and freedom from image degrading imperfections. LightChariot lenses include high-transmission optical coatings on air-to-glass surfaces. Sky-Watchers achromatic, air-spaced objective lenses are fabricated from only the finest Grade-A Crown & Flint glass.
