Explore Scientific Moon & Planet Filter Set: Deeper Colors for 6-inch and Larger (from 150mm aperture)
This Explore Scientific filter set contains four 1.25-inch color filters, designed for telescopes with apertures of 150mm or larger. Color filters enhance the contrast between light and dark areas, making details on the Moon and planets more visible that would otherwise be lost without a filter.
Every opening requires different filter densities: the larger the telescope, the more light enters and the denser the filters may be. This set is designed for that, so each filter is usable with the telescope you have.

Features
- In this set: Light blue No. 82A: high clouds on Mars and the rings of Saturn
- In this set: Violet No. 47: The Cloud Structure of Venus and the Rings of Saturn
- In this set: Light Red #23A: blocks blue light for maximum contrast on Jupiter, Saturn, and the polar caps of Mars
- In this set: Yellow-green No. 11: Lunar relief and cloud bands on the gas giants
- Optical glass, plan parallel polished, with anti-reflective coating
- Black anodized aluminum barrels threaded on both sides: filters are stackable
- Supplied with protective cases per filter
Compatibility
The filters screw into any eyepiece or accessory with 1.25 inch (31.75 mm) filter threads. The double threading allows you to combine two filters if desired.
