Coronado - PST CaK (<2.2A) Calcium K Telescope (Personal Solar Telescope) with FREE Meade Electronic Eyepiece ( While Supplies Last )

Coronado P.S.T. CaK is a truly remarkable telescope linking two of our most recent technological
breakthroughs. By combining the optical design of the price friendly P.S.T. with the Calcium K
line filters of our SolarMax 70 CaK we are again making solar discovery a real and attainable
aspect of Astronomy.

The unique CaK filter isolates a layer of the Sun that is below and slightly cooler than the
layer viewed with a Coronado Hydrogen Alpha filter. The transmission line is centered at 393.4
nanometers and is isolated using thermally stable interference filters. Given that this telescope
has a much smaller aperture than its bigger brother, the SolarMax 70 CaK, you can anticipate a
drop in resolution but not in contrast, safety, or quality. The magnificent super granulation
cells that gather and strengthen in this layer of the Chromosphere may not be visible to all as
most humans eyes , through the process of aging, are not particularly sensitive to this
wavelength. The primary purpose of any CaK instrument is for imaging.

Coronado does not guarantee the performance of any imaging equipment being used in a prime focus
position. All equipment will work in an afocal setup using the appropriate adaptors. These are
the same adaptors that you use at night and, at this time, are not offered by Coronado. If your
current imaging equipment will not work at prime focus and can’t be used in a afocal setup
Coronado recommends the purchase of one of the Meade Electronic Eyepiece systems. The Deep Space
Imager or the Lunar Planetary Imager. A computer is required to operate these. The P.S.T. CaK
will work with the Malta Mount and features a built in finder scope.
