Explore Scientific ED152 Air-Spaced Triplet Telescope

Versatile Instrument

The ED152 air-spaced triplet telescope from Explore Scientific is a lightweight and portable instrument that lets you truly enjoy observing night sky objects and take incredible astrophotography shots. It offers increased light grasp and image brightness with a high contrast optical system so you get a great viewing experience.

Lightweight and Portable Design

The ED152 refractor weighs only 20.5 lbs, making it one of the lightest telescopes in its class. This lightweight design makes it suitable for those with physical constraints or prefer a lighter and more portable telescope. It can easily be transported to different observing locations or taken on camping trips/other outdoor adventures without any hassle.

Increased Light Grasp and Image Brightness

Compared to smaller models, the ED152 offers a remarkable 44% increase in light grasp and image brightness compared to the ED127, and an impressive 125% increase compared to the ED102 Air-Spaced Triplet. This significant increase in light grasp allows for clearer and more detailed observations.

Observing moon transits, capturing structural details and color variations on Jupiter, and exploring nebulae and galaxies has never been easier. The ED152 air-spaced triplet telescope ensures that the images appear three-dimensional and etched in crystal against a dark sky.

High Contrast Optical System

The ED152 features an unobstructed and high contrast optical system, allowing for detailed observations of celestial objects. In addition to the items above, it enables you to do incredibly fun activities including resolving Cassini's and Enke's Divisions of Saturn's rings. The high contrast and clear views can reveal intricate details even under less than optimal seeing conditions.

Suitable for Astrophotography

The ED152 air-spaced triplet telescope is not just a telescope for observing, but also an astrograph capable of producing high-quality images. It is compatible with a wide range of accessories, allowing you to customize it to meet your specific observing and imaging requirements. Both beginner and experienced astrophotographers enjoy the flexibility provided by the ED152 giving you the tools you need to capture your best images of the night sky.
