Orion StarMax 90mm TableTop Maksutov-Cassegrain Telescope for Adult & Family Stargazing

The Orion StarMax 90mm TableTop Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope is a pint-sized powerhouse that offers surprisingly expansive views, making it an excellent choice as a first telescope or a convenient portable second telescope. With its long 1250mm focal length (f/13.9) Mak-Cass optics, this compact 11-inch tube packs a serious punch.

The included 20mm and 10mm 4-element eyepieces provide magnification powers of 62.5x and 125x respectively, allowing you to get up close and personal with your celestial targets. You'll be treated to bright, detailed views of the Moon's rugged terrain, Saturn's captivating rings, and the moons of Jupiter as they drift across the sky.

Focusing the telescope is a breeze, thanks to the large focusing knob on the rear of the tube. The compact StarMax 90 can be set up on a table or even the hood of your car, enabling comfortable stargazing sessions. If a table is not available, the altazimuth base can be attached to an optional field tripod via the threaded 3/8"-16 socket on the bottom.

Alongside the powerful optics, the StarMax 90 comes equipped with a host of great accessories. In addition to the two multi-coated, 4-element eyepieces, you'll receive an Orion Moon filter that brings out incredible lunar detail, as well as an EZ Finder II red dot scope to aid in locating your targets. The included Orion MoonMap 260 will help you identify over 260 lunar features as you explore the night sky.

One of the key advantages of the StarMax 90's Maksutov-Cassegrain design is the fact that its optics never require adjustment, unlike with reflector telescopes. The precise factory alignment and fixed optics ensure maximum image sharpness, time after time.

Weighing in at just 6.5 lbs. when fully assembled, this ultra-portable telescope can be easily taken on road trips, camping excursions, or even to the backyard, providing stunning views of the Moon, planets, and brighter deep-sky objects like globular clusters, nebulae, and galaxies.

The nifty tabletop base offers a stable viewing foundation that can be placed on any sturdy table or attached to a field tripod with a 3/8" or 1/4"-20 threaded post. The package is rounded out with a 90-degree mirror diagonal for comfortable sky viewing and a suite of high-quality accessories that enhance your observing experience.

Whether you're a seasoned stargazer or just starting your astronomical journey, the Orion StarMax 90mm TableTop Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope delivers powerful, portable, and user-friendly performance, making it a fantastic addition to any amateur astronomer's arsenal.
