With its advanced diffraction-limited optics and genuine HOYA FCD1 ED glass, this telescope offers exceptional views of the lunar terrain, Saturn's rings, and deep sky objects from the Messier catalog. Its air-spaced triplet design and EMD coatings on all optical surfaces minimize chromatic aberrations, resulting in high-contrast images. Conveniently sized for spontaneous stargazing sessions, the ED80 is also compatible with larger telescopes for versatile astrophotography. The telescope tube has an outside diameter of 91mm, making it compact and easy to transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExplore Scientific 2\" rack-and-pinion focuser comes with 2 extension tubes. Explore Scientific \u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/explorescientificusa.com\/products\/explore-scientific-hybrid-finder-scope-base\" title=\"Hybrid 2N1 Finder Scope Base\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/explorescientificusa.com\/products\/explore-scientific-hybrid-finder-scope-base\"\u003eHybrid Finder Scope Base\u003c\/a\u003e installed on scope.
