Levenhuk New Skyline Base Mak 70/1000 AZ-M
The compact Levenhuk New Skyline BASE MAK 70/1000 AZ-M telescope is the ideal choice for budding astronomers. It's easy to use, comes with everything you need to get started, and opens up a host of nearby space objects and phenomena – the Moon, Saturn's rings, Jupiter's moons, the phases of Venus, and much more. You can observe the Moon in stunning detail – see craters over 8km in diameter, vast mountain ranges, seas, and rilles along the terminator line. Although this telescope is optimised for observing planets, under good conditions and with a perfectly dark sky, you can also spot dozens of bright star clusters, such as the Pleiades or the Beehive Cluster, which shine like a field of gems against the black velvet of the sky.

Sharp, high-contrast image
The Levenhuk New Skyline BASE MAK 70/1000 AZ-M features lenses made of optical glass with two special coatings for the best possible image quality. The first is an aluminium layer that increases the system's reflectivity and protects the optics. The second is a broadband anti-reflection coating that enhances contrast and eliminates unwanted glare. The result is a sharp, high-contrast image with excellent magnification and resolution.
Alt-azimuth mount
A key feature is the alt-azimuth mount with a large, ergonomic control handle, conveniently placed to the observer's right. The handle makes it easy to aim the telescope, and a handy lock at the top secures it in place with one simple movement. The mount also offers classic fine-tuning with two slow-motion control knobs.
Accessories
The mount is set on a sturdy aluminium tripod with an adjustable height from 57.5cm to 141.5cm. A practical accessory tray attaches to the tripod legs, keeping everything within easy reach. The telescope also comes with essential accessories – a 5×24 optical finderscope, 10mm and 20mm eyepieces, a 90° screen size mirror, and a smartphone adapter. For safe transport and storage, the optical tube and tripod each have their own durable carrying bags. The tube attaches via a Vixen-style dovetail plate.
