Celestron EclipSmart Solar Telescope 50 with Backpack

Solar events like eclipses are a rare occurrence so when they happen you want to be able to get the have the best view possible. Staring into, or even in the direction of, the sun is painful and can quickly lead to permanent vision damage. Special glasses and homemade cardboard viewers are better options, but for the ultimate eclipse viewing experience you need Celestron’s EclipSmart Travel Scope 50.

This finder scope is specially designed for safely viewing solar events while providing the clearest possible image. Its large, multi-coated lens provides a clear image while the Solar Safe finderscope makes it easy to safely line the telescope up with the sun.

Solar Safe Technology

This EclipSmart finderscope is equipped with Solar Safe technology to protect your eyes from harmful radiation and light waves during every step of the observation process. The finderscope allows for easy alignment of the telescope without looking directly at the sun – just line up the shadow of the pointer with the target reticle and the sun will appear in the eyepiece.

The telescope itself is designed with non-removable glass solar filters that block IR and UV light as well as 99.999% of all visible light. This makes it possible to get a clear image of the sun without risking permanent vision damage. To ensure maximum protection, the Solar Safe technology has been independently evaluated by SAI Global Assurance Services.

Stunning Image Quality

In addition to being designed for ultimate vision protection while you’re viewing the sun, this telescope also provides excellent image reproduction. Its large 50mm lens gathers a large amount of light for crisp, clear images and the included 20mm Kellner eyepiece offers 18x magnification which creates a wide field of view and provides powerful zoom capability. The glass lens elements have also been treated with a multi-coating that increases light transmission and reduces glare and ghosting.

Tripod Mount for Stable Viewing

This EclipSmart telescope comes with a photo-style alt-azimuth mount & tripod which allows easy adjustment and aiming of the telescope while offering great stability. The telescope can point straight overhead without interference thanks to this tripod and mount, as well.

Lightweight Backpack for Transport and Storage

In addition to the tripod and mount, this telescope also includes a lightweight backpack. This backpack is designed to fit the telescope, tripod and all accessories while providing protection from bumps and drops. It ensures your equipment will be safe from harm during transport and storage.
