Orion Skyscanner BL135mm Dobsonian Reflector Telescope Kit

The Orion SkyScanner BL135mm Dobsonian Reflector Telescope Kit - which includes extra must-have items described below - will reveal the Moons crater-scarred surface and the Orion Nebulas gaseous ghostliness in amazing detail, not to mention hundreds of other celestial gems. The whole family can get in on the action from the very first night out with the SkyScanner BL135mm Dobsonian. This beginning Dobsonian blows away traditional starter telescopes, in both image brightness and ease of use. It features a big 135mm (5.3) mirror that collects gobs of light, which accounts for those bright images. The optical tube glides effortlessly on a sturdy Dobsonian base. Its so easy to operate - you just point the tube and view. There are no complicated gears, counterweights, or tripod legs to deal with as there are with many beginner telescopes. The 2 focuser can accept optional 2 eyepieces or 1.25 eyepieces, two of which are included. The 25mm Kellner eyepiece provides 44x magnification while the 10mm Plossl eyepiece delivers 110x power. These eyepieces are a definite cut above the typical cheapie jobs found in most competing beginner telescopes. Zero in on your target with the red dot scope. Also included is a 3x Barlow lens, which triples the magnification of any eyepiece its used with. It identifies over 260 features on the Moon such as craters, mountains, and valleys. In addition to the accessories noted above, the SkyScanner BL135mm Dobsonian Reflector Telescope Kit comes with a Moon Filter to cut the Moons excessive surface brightness, our Star Target Planisphere, and Orions 174-page Telescope Observers Guide to help you find and enjoy some 60 objects visible with your telescope. Base weighs 23 lbs. 10 oz., optical tube weighs 8 lbs. 15 oz. The optical tube detaches from the base without tools, making for easier two-piece transport if desired.
