DAYSTAR SOLAR SCOUT 80MM H-ALPHA TELESCOPE - Chromosphere is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
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.
