Lunt Solar Universal Ha Solar Telescope

The telescope features a modular design where the hydrogen-alpha solar module can be removed. Once the module is detached, you can use the remaining ED doublet refractor for standard lunar, planetary, and deep-sky observation.

Pressure tuning allows you to precisely adjust the etalon to account for altitude and atmospheric changes. This ensures you maintain a uniform, high-contrast bandpass across the entire field of view when observing the sun.

Yes, the aperture changes depending on the configuration. It operates at 60mm when the solar module is installed for H-alpha observation and opens up to its full 70mm native aperture when the module is removed for night-sky viewing.

The 2-inch rack and pinion focuser is built for stability and precision. With its 10:1 dual-speed adjustment, it provides the fine control necessary for sharp focus, whether you are using a heavy eyepiece or a dedicated astronomy camera.

With a bandpass of less than 0.45 Angstroms, this telescope is capable of revealing intricate surface details on the sun, such as filaments and active regions, as well as prominent solar flares along the limb.

The telescope includes a clamshell mounting ring and a 12mm blocking filter diagonal, but you will likely need a standard T-ring or adapter specific to your camera model to connect it to the focuser for deep-sky imaging.
