Product information "Bresser Messier AR-102L/1350 EXOS-1/EQ4"
NEW - now including a high-quality aperture Solar-filter for safe observation of sunspots, eclipses and planet transits. Great telescope for night and solar observation.
Ambitious beginners and advanced observers alike will see the finest details of our Moon and Planets with the BRESSER Messier AR-102L telescope. Watch details on Mars like the white polar ice-cap, the Cassini division on the ring of Saturn or the great-red-spot on Jupiter. Scanning the lunar terminator is simply a pleasure. You will never give the BRESSER Messier AR-102L Telescope away voluntarily.
Because of the extra long focal length ratio F/13.2 this telescope offers incredible sharpness and contrast but extremly low color-aberration.
Mount and Tripod. The BRESSER Messier beginners series of telescopes. Within this series you find smaller optics mounted stable on the new BRESSER EXOS 1 mount. This combination means more value for money and puts an end to flimsy beginners scopes which discourage most of the beginners due to small, under engineered mounts. The EXOS 1 with a robust steel tripod bears optical tubes weighing up to 7kg stable for visual observation. The optional motor drive for the RA axis makes usage even more comfortable, so there is no need of manual tracking and the object is kept steadily in the field of view.

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 82° Ar Eyepiece 6,7mm (1,25")
£165.00*
Explore Scientific 82° Series™ extreme wide field eyepieces are optimized to produce high contrast, high resolution, and superior flat field characteristics.
The visual effect of these eyepieces with their long eye-relief and their 82° apparent field is truly a full-immersion experience. Your eye is relaxed, allowing you to easily use the "averted vision" technique to study faint details across a huge field-of-view. The 82° Series eyepieces come with a twist-up rubber eye-guard that raise to the desired height for the comfort of the observer, and as experienced astronomers know, eye comfort is critical when trying to observe at the visual limits of the telescope. To keep internal reflections to a minimum, all internal surfaces of the eyepiece barrel are flat black, as well as the edges of the lenses themselves to minimize the scattering of light within the lenses themselves.
All 82° Series eyepieces are fully multi-coated and edge-blackened to produce maximum contrast.

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC Filter Set 2 Moon & Planets from 100mm (4")
£42.00*
Filter Set 2 is recommended for Moon & Planets from 100mm (4") Aperture
Set 2 includes the following filters:
Explore Scientific Filter 1.25" Green No.56 - 0310262
The green filter is to increase the contrasts enormously between the red and the blue regions of the cloud structures on the gas planets Jupiter and Saturn. Seeing our Earth Moon through the green filter, the contrasts of each ray crater become clearly more visible.
Explore Scientific Filter 1.25" Orange No.21 - 0310273
This one really supports the detection of the dark areas on the planet Mars. The details of the clouds of Saturn and Jupiter are also so much more visible through the Filter.
Explore Scientific Filter 1.25" Yellow No.12 - 0310267
Watching the Moon surface through the filter, the contrasts will enormously increase. Same with planet Mars. On the huge planet Jupiter, when using the filter, you can even see the contrasts between the cloud-bands and a lot more details. Starting with a telescope diameter of 8“ and a clear sight, you even get to see various details of Saturn.
Explore Scientific Filter 1.25" Blue No.80A - 0310264
The color of light blue really supports watching the high clouds on Mars. The contrast increases. The dark red structures will be shown even darker, so this is the perfect filter for watching the big red Flecks on the gas planet Jupiter. The rings of Saturn will be accentuated, the structures of the Venus Atmosphere will be even finer.
What ist a color Filter for and do we really need it?
Color Filters darken the light slightly, that reaches the eye or the sensor of the camera. This eliminates for instance stronger transitions. The result is that your picture turns out with more contrast which automatically shows more details.
FEATURES
Made from high-quality optical glass
Filter glass is absolutely parallel
All optical surfaces have anti reflex coatings

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 1.25" Variable Polarizing Filter
£58.00*
Universally usable variable polarizing filter with a 1.25" filter thread.This variable polarizing filter allows for a continuous adjustment of the image brightness. This is very helpful to level strong differences in contrast of different observation objects individually. Particularly for lunar and planetary observations but also for solar observations this filter prevents an outshining of details.Solar observations ONLY together with an adequate solar filter !!! Particularly when a Herschel wedge is used and with large objective lens apertures the use of the variable polarizing filter can reduce the brightness of the observation object to a confortable level. The large adjustment range of 40% to 1% light transmission and the neutral grey filter effect create a comfortable and unadulterated image.The handling is very simple. The desired filtering level is set by turning the two sides of the housing against each other.A 1.25" filter thread on both sides (female/male) allow for the simultaneous use of additional colour filters.FEATURESvariable polarizing filterindividually adjustable image brightnessmade from high-quality optical glassblack anodized aluminium housing1.25" filter thread on both sidesSCOPE OF DELIVERYpolarizing filterprotective box
