The Explore Scientific ED152 Air-Spaced Triplet in Carbon Fiber is a professional-grade apochromatic refractor designed for serious astrophotographers and visual observers alike. Featuring a large 152mm aperture and premium HOYA FCD1 extra-low dispersion glass, this air-spaced triplet delivers crisp, color-corrected, high-contrast views across the field. Despite its large aperture, the carbon fiber tube keeps the overall weight to just 20.5 lbs, making it remarkably portable for a telescope in this class. This reduced weight enables use with lighter equatorial mounts like the Losmandy G11 PMC-Eight, offering greater flexibility without sacrificing performance.
The ED152 offers a 44% increase in light-gathering capability compared to the ED127, and 125% more than the ED102, providing exceptional brightness and resolution for observing planets, lunar features, deep-sky objects, and more. Its unobstructed design and precision coatings deliver images with stunning contrast, revealing fine details in nebulae, galaxies, and planetary atmospheres with remarkable clarity—even under suboptimal seeing conditions. Whether for research, outreach, or serious personal observing, this carbon fiber version of the ED152 is a highly capable and efficient instrument ready for demanding tasks.
