Celestron Moon Filter 1.25"

The Moon is the most often viewed celestial object through backyard telescopes – for both beginners and advanced amateur astronomers alike. It is difficult to look at the Moon through a telescope and see all of the details due to its brightness. Our eyes are not ready for the bright beam of light that emits from the eyepiece, and they “stop down”, just as they would when you step out into the sunlight on a bright summer’s day. When we’re in the sunlight, we often wear sunglasses. They help us relax our eyes, protect us from glare, and help us see things more clearly. When observing the Moon, amateur astronomers should use a moon filter. The Celestron Moon Filter provides similar benefits to those of sunglasses, allowing our eyes to relax and open up so we can see more detail. This is especially important when observing the Moon when it is near full. The Celestron Moon Filter simply screws onto the insert barrel of most 1.25” eyepieces. It only takes a second or two to transform your regular eyepiece into one suited for lunar observations. A Moon Filter is also helpful when observing Venus or bright terrestrial scenes.
