The Sun's got a lot going on, and the Meade Coronado Personal Solar Telescope
will show it to you. By zeroing in on the far end of the Sun's visible light
spectrum - the hydrogen-alpha line at 656.3nm to be exact - the PST reveals a
star rolling with violent, ever-changing activity. Best of all, the PST's
innovative design allows H-alpha solar viewing for a breakthrough price.

With the PST you will witness eruptions in the solar atmosphere called flares
and the dramatic streamers known as prominences that shoot out from the Sun's
edge. You'll also see a solar disk mottled with granularity and dark, snaking
filaments. Active regions containing migrating sunspots and bright, irregularly
shaped plages add to the incredible detail.This compact 40mm f/10 refractor
houses a special filter called an etalon, which transmits only the primary
wavelength of light emitted by hydrogen (656.3nm) in the solar chromosphere,
where all the action occurs. A bandpass of less than 1.0 Angstrom allows the
viewing of surface features and activity that get washed out with wider-bandpass
filters.

The telescope is just 15" long and weighs only 3 lbs., so it needs only a small
telescope mount or a sturdy camera tripod for support. A 1/4" -20 mounting
socket under the scope's rear housing provides the attachment point.

The PST will show you how dynamic our nearest star really is, with some surface
phenomena changing over several minutes time! Get a Meade Coronado Personal
Solar telescope today and get in on the action!

Features a 40mm diameter dedicated Ha optical system with 30mm internal etalon
primary blocking filter and incorporated focuser and bandpass fine adjustment
controls and built in solar viewfinder. 400mm focal length, f/10 focal ratio,
and includes an 18mm Plössl eyepiece. Tripod not included.

The gold CEMAX eyepieces can also be purchased separately. A focusing knob keeps
the image sharp and a tuning collar allows the contrast to be adjusted on
selected surface details. A clever Sun-finder window near the eyepiece provides
a safe way to aim the telescope.

Mounting options include use on a standard photo tripod (scope is threaded for a
standard camera 1/4-20 mounting bolt), Infinity AZS, or the Meade DSM mount with
computerized Autostar and GOTO technology. A custom hard case is available
separately.
