The Heliostar 76 mm H-Alpha solar telescope brings a new light to the Skywatcher family by offering a dedicated Hydrogen-alpha (Hα) solar telescope to the lineup.

• 76 mm aperture, 630 mm focal length, f/8.3

• Official solar telescope of the Charlie Bates Solar Astronomy Project
• Integrated heliostar solar finder, tube rings, and carry handle
• Integrated triffid tuner and Solis etalon technology with <0.55Å bandpass

Hydrogen-alpha solar observing allows users to unlock the incredible dynamics of surface of the Sun, far beyond what a white light solar filter can deliver. From solar prominences on the limb of the Sun (often mistakenly called 'flares'), to active sunspot regions, bright plage patches, surface granulation, wispy snake-like plasma filaments, and more, the star of the solar system is available for capture in breathtaking views and images.

Just in time to catch solar maximum in 2025.

Includes OTA, mounting rings, V-style dovetail, clip-on sun shade, 20 mm 70° 1.25" eyepiece, camera phone adapter, and hard-shell carrying case.
