Description

Our veteran Stellina smart telescope still works wonders when it comes to small, detail-rich DSOs. With its 80 mm aperture, 400 mm focal length and 6.4 MP sensor, it plunges into the heart of the Large Magellanic Cloud to reveal the wisps of the Tarantula Nebula.
The Tarantula Nebula is one of the largest and most massive emission nebulae known in the entire universe. It spans over 600 light-years in diameter. It's often considered one of the most prolific stellar nurseries in our galactic neighborhood.
