EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 2" O-III Nebula Filter

One of the most important obstacles for the exploration of the night sky is the brightening of the night sky by artificial lights, such as streetlights. The night sky is not really dark in the vicinity of towns or cities, which reduces the visibility of objects beyond the solar systems enourmously. Depending on the type of the celestial object it is possible to increase the contrast dramatically by blocking the annoying artifical light. The EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC O-III filter uses a characteristic property of the so called emmission nebulae. Those objekcts glow in special colors, the so called emmission lines. Those emmission lines are linked to chemical elements - in this case oxygen. The EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC O-III nebula filter blocks all other colors (and thereby nearly all of the artificial light) and only the two emmission lines of the oxygen can pass the filter. The result is astonoishing: suddenly nebulae are visible at locations that were completely empty without filters. In suburbian skies for example the veil nebula NGC 6992 is almost not visible with a 200mm telescope. By using this filter you can see the nebula and its structures without problems. A must for every visual observer.

One of the most important obstacles for the exploration of the night sky is the brightening of the night sky by artificial lights, such as streetlights. The night sky is not really dark in the vicinity of towns or cities, which reduces the visibility of objects beyond the solar system enormously. Depending on the type of the celestial object, it is possible to dramatically increase the contrast by blocking annoying artificial light. The EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC UHC filter "zeros in" on the wavelengths of so-called emission nebulae. Those objects glow in special colours - their emission lines. Those emission lines are linked to chemical elements - in this case hydrogen at 486nm and 656nm, plus oxygen at 496nm and 501nm. The EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC UHC nebula filter blocks all other colour wavelengths (and thereby nearly all of artificial light) and only the emission line of the hydrogen and oxygen can pass the filter. The result is astonishing: suddenly nebulae are visible at locations that were completely invisible from, without filters. In suburban skies, for example the Owl-nebula M97, the Veil-nebula NGC 6992 or even the bright Dumbell-nebula M27 are not clearly visible. Using this filter allows you to see nebulae and their structures in much finer detail. A must for every visual observer. The Explore Scientific nebula filters come with a individual test certificate - your guarantee to receive a premium filter.

Make your smartphone into a photographic all-rounder with a pair of binoculars, a spotting scope, telescope or microscope.This universal smartphone holder was developed by Vixen, and is compatible with a wide range of smartphones and other lenses. The adapter fits onto eyepieces with a diameter of 19 to 53 mm. The size of the smartphone can be between 58x108 mm and 110x200 mm. The eyepiece clamp keeps the adapter centered and holds your smartphone in place. Take stunning photos of the moon's craters through your telescope, or photograph birds or other distant objects through your binoculars.The adapter is very easy to use.It is recommended to use eyepieces with a long eye relief in order to minimise vignetting.FEATURESSuitable for almost any smartphoneEase to useDesigned for eyepieces with a diameter of 19 to 53 mmCan be used with binoculars, telescope, spotting scope or microscopeDimensions: 149 mm x 90 mm x 56 mmWeight: 178 g DELIVERY CONTENTSmartphone adapter

Make amazing discoveries in the microcosmos and capture image and video? That is now possible and you don't need a PC to do it. The digital BRESSER Biolux Touch HDMI microscope is the perfect tool to do it. It is very versatile, ideal for school and hobby. You can easily view the image on the touchscreen.  The integrated, high quality 5MP camera sensor captures images and HD videos directly onto an SD card (SD card not included).The camera is controlled via the touch screen with an intuitive and multi language user menu. With two fingers you can zoom in to see even more detail.The microscope is also perfect to use in schools, for teaching or seminars. The live stream from the microscope can be viewed on a big monitor or TV screen with the HDMI connection. HDMI will deliver a latency free video stream with a framerate of 30 fps.The mechanical crosstable and the coarse and fine focus makes adjusting and screening the sample easy. The 40x objective is sufficient to view small microorganisms and even bacteria, e.g. from a hay infusion. With the additional reflected light you can also view (small) non transparent samples, like plant matter, sand, or insects. The reflected light should be used with the 4x lens. A sample preparation is usually not necessary in this viewing mode, which makes it especially easy for children to get their first glimpse of the micro world.FEATUREScapture images and HD video directly, no PC neededwith 5MP Aptina CMOS camera sensorLCD screen with touch and zoom functionwith fine focus and mechanical crosstableslot for SD card (up to 32GB, not included)HDMI Type A socketUSB socket3 objectives: 4x/10x/40xLED light (transmitted / reflected), dimmablewith many accessoriesSCOPE OF DELIVERYmicroscope with touch screenHDMI cableAC adapter 5V, 1A (EU)Set of tools (preparation needles, pipette, tweezers, MikroCut)Artemia set to hatch fairy shrimpscase with 5 prepared slides, 10 empty slides and 10 cover glassesdust cover

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.

These premium binoculars of the BRESSER Pirsch series is the ideal model for vacations, travelling or while hiking amongst other activities.The high quality binoculars have the newest phase coating that allows the picture shine more clear in contrast and high-definition, reinforced by fully-multicoated lenses.The BaK-4 glass material provides a bright and clear picture. TwistUp eyecups enable spectacle wearers to also enjoy the full field of view, they are adjustable in 2 steps and also support the view without glasses. The BRESSER Pirsch Binoculars have a rubber armored body for solid grip. All Pirsch models come with a broad and very comfortable neckstrap. To complete the package these binoculars are waterproof and nitrogen purged to prevent them against fogging.
