The optical tube design is synonymous with Galileo and his conflict with the Catholic church. Galileo Galilei believed that the Earth revolves around the Sun, but his theory clashed with the geocentric theory held by the establishment of the time. His belief led him to be denounced to the Roman Inquisition; he was accused of heresy and forced to withdraw his theories.

The telescope tube is also adorned with the words “Galileo 400” in recognition that in 2008 his first telescope turned 400 years old.

Accessories in the Box:

• Finderscope 5×24
