Explore Scientific 102mm f/7 FCD100 Apo Triplet Refractor (OTA Only)

Reveal celestial wonders like the desolate beauty of the lunar terrain, the serene structure of Saturn’s rings, or the brightest deep-sky treasures of the Messier catalog with Explore Scientific 102mm f/7 FCD100 Apo Triplet Refractor Telescope. Sized to encourage spontaneous stargazing sessions, made of lightweight carbon fiber, and featuring an air-spaced triplet optical design that virtually eliminates chromatic aberrations, this telescope generates brilliant high-contrast images by combining genuine HOYA FCD100 extra-low dispersion (ED) glass and proprietary EMD-enhanced multilayer coatings on all optical surfaces. Included is a 2.5″ hexagonal focuser with a very rigid design, capable of supporting up to 10 pounds of gear. Although it is a standout telescope on its own, the 102mm is compact enough to mount on a larger telescope, which can add versatility to your astrophotography experience by separating guiding and imaging duties.
