AstroZap Baader Solar Telescope Filters
$49.00
Baader AstroSolar™ film Filter cell constructed from lightweight 18Ga. aluminum and powder coated white. Heavy duty threaded inserts and nylon thumbscrews insure a secure fit. With AstroSolar™ the Sun appears in neutral white. Other films and some glass filters produce a blurry bluish or reddish Solar image, thereby cutting part of the spectrum. Especially with an orange sun, it is very hard to see faculae regions which are visible predominantly in the blue wing of the spectrum. Due to it's neutral color balance, AstroSolar enables the use of various color (or interference) filters which allows the observer to concentrate on certain spectral passbands for investigations of different layers within the solar "atmosphere".Eye safetyAstroSolar™ is essentially free from pinholes, since - other than with even the most expensive glass filters - it is coated on both sides, so that the chance of two pinholes overlapping each other is extremely faint. Pinholes do appear, but to 1 out of 10000 only in optical density 2.5! Baader AstroSolar™ safety film has been approved for eye safety by the National Bureau of Standards in Germany, the PTB. Unlike any other Solar Filter on the market, AstroSolar™ is CE-tested according to EG-Norm 89/686 and EN 169/92 ( notified body 0196). All processes connected to this product have been thoroughly tested. Coatings are inspected constantly for consistency to ensure your eye safety!

Coronado PST - Personal Solar Telescope with Case - 1A Bandwidth
$699.00
Coronado PST - Personal Solar Telescope with CaseThe PST is the latest innovation from Coronado. This "little" telescope is another step toward our goal of making it possible for everyone to "Experience the Sun our way." Sub angstrom H-A systems have long been cost prohibitive for the amateur. Designs other than the Coronado are difficult to use because of temperature and F-Ratio requirements. Not only does the PST have a bandpass of <1.0 angstrom but it is also thermally stable and requires no more time to operate than putting in a eyepiece and adjusting the focus. The PST represents the same technology and quality that goes into a SolarMax series telescope but with a few unique design characteristics that allow us to offer it for less than some premium eyepieces. The PST will show you prominences active regions filaments as well as other surface details - at <1.0 angstrom it will not reveal as much surface detail as the SolarMax series telescope and filters but it certainly doesn't disappoint. "To be honest I was not expecting too much bearing in mind the cost and diminutive nature of the scope I finally set up in the late afternoon. Alignment of the scope is a breeze using the inbuilt sun finder as I looked through the eyepiece I could see a red sun with a small sunspot but no prominences or H-A detail and then decided to try the "tuner" as I rotated the ring the view changed prominences popped into view! With a little further "tweaking" filaments faculae and "orange peel" surface came into view in incredible detail! Absolutely brilliant!"- Mr. N. Longshaw U.K. The PST is made from milled aluminium not plastic! The P.S.T. comes with a built in Sol Ranger for easy alignment a 20mm Kellner eyepiece and a re-usable box with dye cut foam for safe storage. Optional accessories include a hard travel case MALTA tabletop mount CEMAX series eyepieces and SolarMax 40 for double stacking and narrowing the bandpass. To add a SolarMax 40 you will require th

Coronado SolarMax 40 Telescope with BF10
$1,699.00
Coronado SolarMax 40 Dedicated TelescopeThe Coronado SolarMax 40 telescope has the same aperture as the P.S.T. but is distinguished by several key factors. The SolarMax 40 telescope comes standard with a < 0.7 angstrom bandpass which results in increased surface detail across the disk. A T-Max attached directly behind the etalon gives you the ability to adjust for Doppler-shifted light. Bino-viewers and most imaging equipment will come to focus sometimes with the use of a Barlow or OCS. These features plus enhanced surface detail make the SolarMax 40 telescope a more versatile instrument with remarkable solar images. With the SolarMax 40 telescope you will see all of the limb detail of the P.S.T. but with enhanced surface features. The SolarMax 40 telescope comes standard with a BF10 blocking filter; this is ideal for use with imaging equipment and bino-viewers. The larger blocking filter allows you to extend the focal length without vignetting but does not enhance detail or narrow the bandpass. You can also purchase a second SolarMax 40 filter / T-Max along with a small adaptor plate and attach these to the front in order to lower the bandpass to < 0.5 angstroms. This is called "double stacking" and further enhances surface detail.
