By day, you can marvel at distant natural elements, from majestic landscapes to ships and airplanes, while by night, these binoculars unveil the celestial realm, revealing globular star clusters, radiant gas nebulae, and the moon's intricate craters, as well as distant planets.

These binoculars are equipped with large, light-gathering lenses and professional lens coatings, ensuring crisp and vivid images even in low-light conditions, delivering an exceptional viewing experience.

Their ergonomic design, featuring a comfortable 45-degree viewing angle, enables fatigue-free use, even when tilting the binoculars significantly.

Think of these large binoculars as a double refractor telescope, providing the full light-gathering power per eye.

This approach enhances the vibrancy of observed objects and minimizes eye fatigue, allowing you to appreciate the finest details.

Designed for rugged outdoor use, the BT series binoculars feature a robust magnesium housing, sealed and nitrogen-filled to prevent internal optics fogging, even in challenging weather.

Included are two Explore Scientific 20mm eyepieces from the 62-degree LER series, renowned for their quality in the astronomy community.

These eyepieces offer a 24x magnification with a broad field of view, along with a comfortable long eye relief and soft silicone eyecups.

For customization, these binoculars support interchangeable eyepieces with a 1.25-inch / 31.7mm plug-in diameter, allowing you to adjust the magnification and field of view to your liking.

A precise brass compression ring clamp securely holds the eyepieces in place.

Enhance your astronomical observations by using color and nebula filters, which can be easily attached to the eyepiece sleeves.

These filters, when used in pairs, heighten contrast and object visibility.

They are compatible with Explore Scientific screw filters with a 1.25-inch / 31.7mm diameter.

Experience comfortable viewing with the 45-degree angle and precise helical single focus mechanism, which ensures effortless and accurate focusing.

The integrated dew caps can be removed in humid and cold conditions to prevent fogging and stray light.

A convenient metal carrying handle, situated at the center of gravity, simplifies transportation and provides stability during tripod assembly.
