Explore Scientific ED165mm f/7 Carbon Fiber Air-Spaced APO Triplet Refractor – FPL53-165CF-01 

Introducing the Explore Scientific ED165mm f/7 FPL53 Carbon Fiber Air-Spaced Triplet Refractor Telescope, a celestial marvel designed to unlock the beauty of the cosmos.

With an impressive 165mm (6.5-inch) aperture, it employs the exceptional OHARA FPL-53 ED Glass, a pinnacle of extra-low dispersion materials, to create breathtaking views of lunar landscapes, Saturn’s majestic rings, and even the most elusive deep-sky phenomena.

The marriage of FPL-53 with high refractive index optical glass leads to unparalleled chromatic aberration correction, setting OHARA FPL-53 among the finest glass types ever crafted.

Boasting a true diffraction-limited optical design, this sizable high-performance refractor is an ideal “grab-and-go” instrument for celestial exploration.

This telescope’s air-spaced triplet optical design masterfully banishes chromatic aberrations, delivering vivid, high-contrast imagery through a combination of genuine OHARA FPL-53 extra-low dispersion (ED) glass and Explore Scientific’s proprietary EMD enhanced multi-layer coatings, gracing every optical surface.

Moreover, this remarkable scope incorporates a robust 3″ Hexagonal focuser, capable of supporting up to 10 lbs. of equipment.

The package includes an ED165mm f/7 Air Spaced Triplet with Ohara FPL-53 optics, an integrated dew shield, a 1155mm focal length, a 3″ HEX Focuser, a Cradle Ring with Handle and Vixen Style Dovetail Plate, and an Explore Finder Scope Base pre-installed on the scope.

Additionally, a 99% reflective 2″ Diagonal and a TSA-approved hard carrying case complete this exceptional kit. (Please note that the Finder Scope is not included).
