Nice eyepiece

By Yasin A.

Where clarity meets comfort, the Explore Scientific 68 Degree Series 20mm Eyepiece emerges as a superior choice for astronomers and stargazers seeking an immersive viewing experience. Engineered with precision, this eyepiece boasts an expansive 68-degree apparent field of view, surpassing the narrower vistas offered by traditional Plossl or Orthoscopic eyepieces. Its generous 20mm focal length is ideal for those who desire a broader perspective of the night sky.

Crafted with an argon-purged, waterproof barrel, this 1.25" eyepiece ensures durability and protection against the elements, making it a reliable companion for both terrestrial and celestial observations. The argon purging process also prevents internal fogging and preserves the optical integrity over time, enhancing the longevity of the eyepiece.

The eyepiece's thoughtful design includes an extended eye relief, which is particularly beneficial for observers who wear eyeglasses. This feature allows spectacle wearers to maintain a comfortable viewing distance without sacrificing the full field of view. The rubber grip provides a secure hold, reducing the risk of accidental drops, while the folding eyecup adds an extra layer of comfort and versatility, catering to both eyeglass wearers and non-wearers alike.

Optical excellence is achieved through the application of enhanced EMD (Enhanced Multilayer Deposition) coatings, which significantly improve light transmission for brighter, sharper, and higher contrast images. This meticulous attention to optical quality ensures that even the faintest celestial objects become visible, allowing your telescope to reach its full potential.

Whether you're a seasoned astronomer or a curious beginner, the Explore Scientific 68 Degree Series 20mm Eyepiece is designed to elevate your stargazing sessions. Its combination of wide-angle views, exceptional optical performance, and user-centric features make it an indispensable tool for unlocking the mysteries of the cosmos.

Explore Scientific 68 Deg. 20mm Argon-Purged Waterproof Eyepiece, 1.25" Barrel Features

  • Optimized Optical Design: Explore 68 Degree Series 20mm Eyepiece is optimized through each design, fabrication and testing process to produce high contrast, high resolution image
  • Durable Coatings and Finishing Touch: Each element in your Explore Scientific 68 Degree Series 20mm eyepiece is fully multi-coated, resulting in bright, sharp images and every element has blackened edges to reduce internal reflections and increase contrast
  • Waterproof, Fog Proof Housing: The internal optics of 68 Degree Series 20mm eyepiece is housed in a gas-purged, waterproof barrel that keeps them as pristine as the day they were manufactured
  • Tapered Barrel for Extra Security: The insert barrel of 20mm eyepiece is double tapered to allow smooth insertion, the wide dimension of the taper helps prevent the eyepiece from falling out of the telescope should the set screw holding it in place become loose
