Intermediate Telescopes

Intermediate telescopes suit observers who have outgrown a first scope: more aperture for fainter deep-sky targets and steadier alt-azimuth and equatorial mounts. It is the middle tier, above entry-level but below premium.

The selection centers on Explore Scientific refractors and reflectors, from compact ED apochromatic triplets to larger doublets, plus dedicated ED80 solar kits for safe white-light and Hydrogen-alpha viewing. Decide how much aperture and portability fit your targets and your sky.
