Explore Scientific Filters Set Moon & Planets for telescopes 50 mm and up

Explore Scientific Moon and Planets Filter Set: the beginner's set for small telescopes (from 50 mm aperture)

This Explore Scientific filter set contains four 1.25-inch color filters, designed for telescopes with apertures of 50mm and up. Color filters enhance the contrast between light and dark areas, making details on the moon and planets more visible that would otherwise be lost.

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 yellow #8: more contrast on the moon's surface and Jupiter's cloud bands
• In this set: Orange #21: dark areas on Mars and cloud detail on Jupiter and Saturn
• In this set: Blue No. 80A: High clouds on Mars and the Great Red Spot on Jupiter
• In this set: Gray ND 0.9 (13% transmission): reduces the intensity of bright moonlight without introducing a color cast
• 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.
