Description This is a Generation II telescope. All updates have been performed on this telescope. No telescope type has changed the hobby quite as much as the Dobsonian. Before the introduction of the Dobsonian by John Dobson, the vast majority of amateur telescopes consisted of small telescopes with primitive mechanics – barely enough to see […]

Explore Scientific Nebula Filter 1.25″ UHC Range from 458nm to 508nm with peak at 488nm. Transmission 96.7% UHC – This is an ultra-high contrast narrow-band filter, designed for observing the broad range of nebulae with 1.25-inch standard eyepieces or filter wheels. The bandpass is tighter than the CLS Nebula Filter, thereby blocking even more light […]

Explore Scientific Nebula Filter 2.0″ UHC Range from 458nm to 508nm with peak at 488nm. Transmission 96.7% UHC – This is an ultra-high contrast narrow-band filter, designed for observing the broad range of nebulae with 2.0-inch standard eyepieces or filter wheels. The bandpass is tighter than the CLS Nebula Filter, thereby blocking even more light […]

Explore Scientific Nebula Filter 1.25″ H-Beta Range from 478nm to 496nm with peak at 489nm. Transmission 94.5% H-Beta – Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe and many nebulae glow in the light of H-beta. This line filter blocks all other wavelengths (and thereby nearly all of the artificial light) and only the […]
