Sky-Watcher Heliostar 100 H-Alpha Solar Telescope (OTA Only)

The Sky-Watcher Heliostar 100 H-Alpha Solar Telescope is a dedicated optic for solar viewing only. This is no general-use refractor with a solar filter over the aperture—the Heliostar is built with a highly precise Solis etalon bandpass filter, refined by a Trifid tuner, to block all but a 0.55-angstrom sliver of hydrogen-alpha light. That light, in the 656.3nm wavelength, permits observation of solar phenomena in rich detail, including prominences, filaments, sunspots, and solar flares.
