DAYSTAR SOLAR SCOUT 80MM H-ALPHA TELESCOPE

The DayStar Solar Scout 80 is a high quality carbon fibre achromatic doublet refractor specifically designed for the Hydrogen-alpha wavelength. It contains an interchangeable Quark Chromosphere or Prominence H-alpha filter which offers performance comparable to similar solar telescopes from other manufacturers, but at a far lower cost.

The Solar Scout 80 is available in either Prominence or Chromosphere configurations at no extra cost, depending on your goals.

• The Chromosphere version features a bandpass between 0.5 - 0.3Å, making it the perfect choice for viewing surface detail, although prominences will still be visible.

• The Prominence version has a bandpass of 0.8 - 0.6Å, which will deliver bright, high-contrast views of prominences against a jet black sky.
