Observe the Moon

Observe the moon with sharp, clear images and maximum detail with this powerful telescope.

You’ll also get the extra brightness you need when observing the moon in the middle of the night thanks to the superior optical quality it provides…

Saturn, Jupiter, Mars…

YOU will be able to see the planets like Saturn, Jupiter and Mars, but keep in mind that there are times of the year when the planets are closer to the Earth and can be seen much better; when they are far away it is difficult to see them well. Here is a summary of when they are the closest:

  • Saturn… July 20, 2020, August 2, 2021, August 14, 2022
  • Jupiter… July 14, 2020, August 20, 2021, September 26, 2022
  • Mars… 13 October 2020, 8 December 2022, 16 January 2025

Depending on the time of year you will have to look for the celestial objects that can be seen best.

Galaxies, Nebulae, Clusters, Comets…

Some of the most spectacular celestial objects are the Messier. Be patient because at first it is hard to find these objects, but they are worth it.

Try the Slokey 50080 telescope to see the Andromeda Galaxy, the Orion Nebula, the Pleiades and many more…

Its powerful, anti-glare lenses will allow you to appreciate the details of the deep sky like you’ve never imagined before. Enjoy clear and detailed images to observe galaxies, nebulae and celestial objects… It will give you hours and hours of enjoyment.

    Ordered this item as a birthday present. When opened the item inside was a garden strimmer.
    Must have been a mix up somewhere. Cannot rate it as it never arrived.

    Love this telescope, it’s well built, doesn’t feel cheap, instructions is easy to understand, tri pod is nice and strong, it had a nice clear lens, I love the adapter that holds your phone to lens to take photo. Its easy to put together and looks well.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI was looking for an entry level telescope that would be perfect for travelling with and so far so good. Easy to set up and woth clear instructions. I’m looking forward to some clear night skies so I can test it out properly.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersEverything else ordered through amazon comes in a plain old box. Which is great, because if its a gift for a family member within your house, they won’t know what’s inside said box. This arrives with TELESCOPE plastered over the side of the box. Excellent secret keeping.
    Sure it’ll be fine, got good reviews, so for a 70th birthday present, hoping it goes down well! If course, he already knows what it is now.

    Golden Review Award: 11 From Our UsersMy first impression is that this (the 60090) model is nice quality with good accessories. The first thing to clear up (I got conflicting answers to my question), you see the image the correct way up, handy for non-skywards observations.

    It is definitely worth taking some time to read the manual before setting it up as this helps you understand it’s capabilities and gives some good tips on viewing spots.

    As a complete amateur I am looking forward to some stargazing and will update this review over time.

    Golden Review Award: 11 From Our UsersBought this for my mum for Christmas she she is obsessed with the moon and loves taking pictures of it on her phone. Absolutely worth every penny. These photos are from her first attempt using it on a cloudy night, so can’t wait to see what she’s able to see with practise and on a clearer night. Easy to set up, and fantastic quality.

    My mum LOVES her Christmas present!

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersI got this telescope and this is an amazing product I have seen the moon today up close and it was amazing showing every single detail also saw the planet Jupiter and I could see it in great quality in a light pollution area also when the other day I saw loads of stars in great view I absolutely recommend this telescope its definitely 10/10

    Great!

    Golden Review Award: 11 From Our UsersI bought this telescope to taken a closer look at nature and the solar system.
    It is easy to assemble with a step by step guide.
    This is perfect for a beginner who doesn’t want anything too complicated. Once you have set up your red dot finder, it’s simple, use your red dot finder to point to the image you want which will then appear in the telescope viewer. (Focusing required)
    The camera attachment is a bit faffy at first but practice makes perfect.
    I’ve looked at a few stars and various wildlife and am waiting for some clearer night skies at the moment. The telescope comes with various lenses with different magnifications including a Barlow lense which will come in useful once we get a new moon. I’m extremely pleased with the product for the price and would recommend this to an adult beginner.

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersBeing someone who is a beginner to observing the heavens I didn’t know that to use the scope for terrestrial view the image is inverted which is a bit of a shame as the scope was intended for looking at objects on earth, However I will persist with it as it’s well made and seems good value for the price.

    Becuase it is a smaller scope you may not be able to see everything you may want to however I popped a 6mm lense in and since then it’s been fantastic however if you’re not a beginner I would recommend going for the larger scope

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersFor those looking into astronomy, nature watching ect… This is the perfect first telescope for those who are serious about the hobby. It’s not massive (Though it can take up space) it doesn’t cost the world; like the ones you see in movies and does the job right. Has extra lenses along with a holder and a carry case to put everything into. Including your well needed instructions 😉 Would highly recommend as a gift.

    This telescope is definitely for beginners, as the image is quite shaken when you need to search and adjust it often. However, if locked in place, it is ok.

    Bought the Lente Barlow 2x lens from Slokey. This is a very clear lens. Use it on my Heritage 130P telescope. I’ve been blown away with the extra stars, planets and galaxies I can now see.
    Brilliant.

    I was very pleased of how quickly my parcel arrived and I also received an email from Slokey on how too set up the scope and also making sure all was good with my purchase and if I was happy with everything, which I thought was very decent and helpful, the scope itself was easy to set up and get outside for a view of the full moon straight away, it will still take me a while to get used to the different magnification on the 3 lenses and also adding on the Barlow lens, but it’s a very good scope and I’m hoping for more clear nights, I would recommend this scope for anyone wanting to try out star gazing

    Complete skywatching beginner here. Telescope looks good and is easy to assemble. Very easy to pack away in the neat-looking carry-bag, which is light so no problem in moving the kit around. I had thought that once you put it all together it’d be a pain to move to different locations but that isn’t the case. I now just need to figure out two things: a) how to use it properly and b) what I’m looking at!

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersThe package arrived promptly but, as others have reported mould, mine smelled musty and some of the screws were rusted up straight out of the box so these seem to have gotten wet at some point.
    I would be pretty disappointed if I had paid the original 300 asking price.
    Seems ok otherwise.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Damp as others have reported

    Being new to astronomy and telescopes,I wasn’t really up on which scope I needed but the slokey 50080 is absolutely perfect for seasoned pros and beginners like myself. It came with additional lenses that range from nearby observation up to planetary observations .due to poor winter cloud coverage and snow I have not as yet really had the chance to put it through its paces but I really look forward to this but it looks and maneuvers like more expensive telescopes with “A” rate clear magnification and study extendable tripod that makes it all round pleasing to the eye ..5/5..

    Very pleased with the telescope and accessories 5/5..

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersNot had a chance to try it properly yet but first impressions are good. Easy to assemble and the instruction booklet was very clear to follow. One negative I did find was the three middle size set screws were rusty on the thread and the knurled section , this suggests the plating process was either faulty on this batch of screws or the telescope and accessories have been in storage for a while. It’s not worth sending the whole thing back for the sake of three screws so I’ll live with it and just hope there’s not more corrosion somewhere I can’t see.
