Orion Observer 134mm Equatorial Reflector Telescope for Astronomy Beginners to Intermediate - Portable and Sturdy for Adult & Family Stargazing

The Orion Observer 134mm EQ Reflector Telescope is an excellent choice for both solo stargazers and families eager to explore the wonders of the night sky. With its impressive optical design and robust equatorial mount, this telescope provides an exciting gateway into the world of astronomy.

At the heart of this telescope is a 134mm (5.3") parabolic primary mirror and a 650mm focal length (f/4.9), delivering sharp, wide-field views of celestial objects. Whether you're marveling at the intricate details of the lunar surface, the captivating rings of Saturn, or the breathtaking deep-sky wonders like the Lagoon and Orion nebulas, or the Andromeda galaxy, this telescope has the capability to reveal them all.

Supported on a sturdy EQ3-class equatorial mount and a solid aluminum tripod, the Observer 134mm EQ Reflector Telescope ensures steady and reliable tracking of objects as they move across the night sky. The dual slow-motion cables allow for precise manual tracking, keeping your targets centered in the eyepiece's field of view.

The accessory package includes two high-quality 1.25" Plossl eyepieces: a 25mm for low-power views at 26x magnification, and a 10mm for higher magnification at 65x. Both eyepieces feature anti-reflection coatings for exceptional light transmission, and their threaded barrels are compatible with optional Orion filters. Additionally, a 6x30 crosshair finder scope is provided to help you locate and center your celestial targets of interest.

One of the notable features of this telescope is its portability. The optical tube can be quickly removed from the mount via the Vixen-style dovetail mounting system, allowing you to carry it separately from the tripod and mount. This makes it easy to transport the telescope out to your backyard or a dark-sky observing site, without the need to disassemble the entire setup.

Weighing just over 18 lbs, the Orion Observer 134mm EQ Reflector Telescope strikes a balance between heft and maneuverability. The substantial construction ensures steady images, even in breezy conditions, while the relatively light weight makes it comfortable to carry and set up.

Whether you're a serious beginning astronomer or an intermediate stargazer, the Orion Observer 134mm EQ Reflector Telescope offers an exciting and rewarding observing experience. With its impressive optical capabilities, sturdy equatorial mount, and convenient accessories, this telescope is poised to take you on a captivating journey through the celestial wonders of the night sky.
