The Explore Scientific 72 degree ED 15mm eyepiece with a 1.25 inch barrel is designed to provide bright, wide field views that make it easier to explore larger regions of the night sky. It is an excellent choice for observing star clusters, nebulae, and other expansive deep sky objects. The 72 degree apparent field of view creates an immersive viewing experience that allows you to take in more of the sky at once. This makes it easier to locate objects and enjoy their full structure within the eyepiece.

Extra low dispersion glass enhances the viewing experience by reducing color fringing and improving contrast. This results in cleaner, more natural images where detail stands out clearly. The eyepiece is built for comfort, with generous eye relief that supports longer observing sessions without strain. This makes it a great option for relaxed, extended exploration.

This focal length offers a strong balance between brightness and magnification, making it a valuable addition to any eyepiece collection.

Customer Reviews (4.4 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Charlotte ★★★★★

I’ve been using this 15mm eyepiece for a few weeks now, and the wide 72-degree field makes scanning star clusters feel effortless. The image stays crisp and bright all the way to the edge, even on my f/6 scope.

Kevin R. ★★★★★

The 72° field of view through this 15mm eyepiece is genuinely immersive, making star hopping around nebulae feel effortless. Even my fainter deep-sky objects appear with impressive brightness and contrast through the 1.25 inch barrel. Definitely a step up from my previous wide-angle eyepiece.

Ava ★★★★★

The 15mm focal length is perfect for sweeping the Milky Way, and the 72-degree field makes star hopping feel effortless. I paired it with my refractor and the views of the Double Cluster were incredibly crisp. This eyepiece has become my go-to for wide-field observing.
