Mercan 100th Year Observatory offers the opportunity to explore the sky with state-of-the-art telescopes. A unique experience in Mersin for science and astronomy enthusiasts.
Telescopes are available in different sizes. The larger the lens aperture, the greater the light-gathering power, making our observation of higher quality and more understandable.
Tripods vary according to the weight of the telescope.
Alignment is taken from the finder scope before looking through the eyepiece. This makes it easier for you to find the celestial body.
It is the magnification power of the telescope. There are eye lenses of different sizes. The lower the millimeter number, the closer the image gets and at the same time it narrows.
There are different types of optical tubes available. The tube you do not observe is called a lens. Each type of optical tube has its own advantages.
Normally telescopes show the image inverted. Thanks to this part, you can see objects straight in your telescope. It is essential for earth observation.
Neptune's atmosphere contains methane gas. Methane absorbs red light and reflects blue light, giving the planet its dazzling blue color.
Saturn's rings are not a solid structure, but are composed of billions of small particles of ice, dust, and rocks.
The Sun accounts for 99.86% of the total mass in the Solar System. About 1.3 million planets the size of Earth could fit inside the Sun.
