Discounted gear includes FCD100 127mm telescopes, 1.25" focal extenders & select eyepieces!
For months, the amateur astronomy community has been buzzing about the unusual dimming of one of the Orion constellation's brightest residents — Betelgeuse. Could it be headed for supernova status sooner rather than later? Only time will tell. In the meantime, Explore Scientific is celebrating the hype by offering stellar savings during our Supernova Sale throughout the month of February. During this limited time event, a versatile selection of telescopes, eyepieces and accessories are being offered at discounted prices. It's a great time to gear up and start exploring! |

The iEXOS-100 PMC-Eight Equatorial Tracker System is a complete astronomical computerized Wifi or wired GOTO system that provides superior performance by pairing a proven German equatorial mount design with Explore Scientific's revolutionary PMC-Eight™ Precision Motion Control system to flawlessly navigate the night sky and track objects as they journey across it. In this special bundle package, the iEXOS-100 comes with a selection of accessories designed to further enhance the mount's performance in imaging situations. The accessories included in this special bundle pack are: • Illuminated polar finder scope, which has a reticle with both northern and southern hemisphere markings to ensure an imaging setup will meet the demanding alignment requirements for astrophotography anywhere in the world; • Azimuth adjuster adapter, which allows iEXOS-100 users to make fine azimuth adjustments for precise polar alignment; • Twilight medium duty tripod, which minimizes vibrations and allows users to add additional weight to the iEXOS-100 mount without compromising performance; • Camera dovetail plate, which makes it easy to attach a camera to the mount.

Explore Scientific's 1.25" focal extenders — which are available in powers of 2x, 3x, and 5x — add versatility to your eyepiece line-up by allowing each eyepiece to perform at two powers.
For example, if your particular eyepiece/telescope combination results in a 50x power, adding a 2x focal extender will change that to a 100x power.
To guarantee superior image quality, our focal extenders use multiple lens elements that are made of high-quality glass and fully multi-coated with EMD coatings to reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations. |

The 127mm apochromatic refractors in Explore Scientific's FCD100 series will produce stunning views of a wealth of celestial wonders from rilles etched into the lunar terrain to billowing nebulae and churning galaxies that populate the Messier catalog. To provide the truest view of the cosmos, these telescopes feature an air-spaced triplet optical design that virtually eliminates chromatic aberrations. In addition, they have a combination of genuine HOYA FCD100 extra-low dispersion (ED) glass and proprietary EMD enhanced multi-layer coatings on all optical surfaces to generate brilliant high-contrast images with crisp definition. The quality of the optics also allows those seeking to push magnification based on their choices of eyepieces or focal extenders to do so without sacrificing clarity. To further guarantee precision performance, these telescopes include a three-point collimation cell that allows for pinpoint adjustments of the objective lens. |
