Description

Explore Ultra-Wide Eyepieces - Comfort, Quality, Value. The Explore Scientific 100° Series eyepieces are hyper-wide class oculars that can transform your visual astronomy experience. You may be startled at the amazingly wide expanse of inky black sky you behold the first time you bring your eye to a 100° Series eyepiece, and after awhile, you may even forget that you have an eyepiece between you and the universe! With an apparent field of view that is close to the maximum for hyper-wide eyepiece design, objects are not only easier to locate, but for non-driven telescopes the object will stay in the field of view for a very long time before any adjustments need to be made.

Another great benefit of hyper-wide eyepieces is the ease with which you can gaze, not directly at an object, but slightly to either side. This skill, called using averted vision, is especially helpful when observing faint objects, because using averted vision puts the image on a part of your eye that is more sensitive to light, allowing you to see fainter images.

Adam P. ★★★★★

Felt like I was floating in space the first time I looked through this 14mm eyepiece at the Pleiades. The 100-degree apparent field is so immersive and the argon-purged housing gives me real confidence it won't fog up on cold nights. Comes as close to a zero-distortion view as I've ever had.

Ava M. ★★★★★

The 100-degree field of view is just stunning—it feels like you're floating in space when you look through it. I was worried about eye relief with my glasses, but the 13mm works perfectly without any blackouts.

Owen W. ★★★★★

I’ve been using this 14mm eyepiece for a few weeks now, and the 100° field of view is just incredible—I can see the entire Veil Nebula without moving the scope. The argon purging is a nice bonus for keeping the optics clear on dewy nights.
