The Explore Scientific AR127 is a large aperture refractor designed to handle the rigors of public star parties and educational outreach. The Explore Scientific AR127 provides classic air-spaced doublet achromat optics made with crown-and-flint glass, making it an excellent achromatic refractor telescope. The superior-class optical figure provided by this 127mm refractor telescope means that it produces stunning images to viewers using the eyepiece. Best of all, Explore Scientific AR127 astrophotography comes at a small fraction of the price you'd pay for a comparably sized apochromatic refractor. With five inches of unobstructed aperture, the AR127 will easily resolve individual stars in globular clusters. Drop in a low power two-inch eyepiece, and you will easily see the Andromeda galaxy in its entirety. The Explore Scientific AR Series telescopes come with heavy-duty, high-quality components, making it a great choice if you're looking for a refractor telescope that can handle the rigors of public star parties and educational outreach programs. These components include a 2" dual-speed Crayford-style focuser, a one-piece 2" diagonal with 99% dielectric coatings, an 8 X 50 finder scope and quick release bracket, and a cradle ring assembly with Vixen-style dovetail mount. Just add a few eyepieces and the alt-azimuth or equatorial mount of your choice and you'll be ready to discover the Universe! Explore Air-Spaced Doublet Refractor Highlights
