Explore Scientific FCD100 Series 127mm f/7.5 Carbon Fiber Triplet ED APO Refractor Telescope with 2.5" HEX Focuser

The Explore Scientific FCD100 Series 127mm f/7.5 Carbon Fiber Triplet ED APO Refractor is an air-spaced triplet refractor built with genuine Hoya FCD100 extra-low dispersion glass, offering a lighter carbon-fiber version of the brand's aluminum ED127 with the same optical formula. The air-spaced triplet design and proprietary EMD multi-layer coatings virtually eliminate chromatic aberration for high-contrast lunar, planetary, and deep-sky views.
