We've done our popular Orion StarBlast 4.5 Astro Beginner Telescope one better. The Orion-designed StarBlast 6 Astro Telescope takes the same compact, wide-field, user-friendly concept and expands on it, literally. The StarBlast 6 boasts fully 73% more light-gathering area than its smaller counterpart. Yet the scope is still highly portable, weighing only 23.5 lbs., and comes with the base fully assembled in the box! The StarBlast 6's 150mm (5.9") f/5.0 parabolic mirror provides ample aperture to reveal the planets and deep-sky gems in wonderful detail. Its wide field of view makes finding and tracking objects easier than with longer focal-length telescopes, which makes it a superb beginner telescope -- for all ages. It also would make a terrific "grab-and-go" second telescope for more experienced stargazers. Teflon bearings and adjustable altitude tension on the base ensure smooth maneuvering of the StarBlast 6. Keep the included Sirius Plossl eyepieces at the ready in the convenient three-hole eyepiece rack. Two handle cutouts in the base allow easy lifting and transporting of the telescope. Set it on the ground or even on a small table or the hood of your car, and enjoy the view! The Orion StarBlast 6 isn't just a masterfully engineered, uncomplicated, and affordable telescope for all ages. It's also a blast! One-year limited warranty.

Short Tube 6 Inch Newtonian Reflector Telescope. This is large aperture reflector at the bargain price that makes your introduction to serious high-power viewing affordable. This 6 inch reflector scope boasts a "short tube" design, with a built-in corrector that yields an 1400mm focal length with just a 19 inch primary tube. As a result, this scope packs a serious high-power punch, with magnification up to 400x making it ideal for lunar and planetary observation. You can see outstanding detail when viewing the moon you'll spot the Rings of Saturn and the Moons of Jupiter. Included is an adjustable full-sized aluminum tripod with a built-in accessory tray. This scope has an Equatorial Mount, so it can be polar aligned to track the movements of stars parade across the night sky. Use the declination circle, hour circle and latitude scale to quickly locate any celestial body. Thanks to precision worm gears and a substantial counter weight, the telescope can be balanced so that the slightest finger touch turn of the flexi cables will move the telescope with a smooth, steady motion. An optional right-ascension motor drive is available. Two medium power 1.25" diameter Plossl eyepieces (25mm & 10mm) and a Barlow 2x lens are included. Additional 1.25" eyepieces are available. Also included is a dust-free cleaning cloth, a map of the surface of the moon and a moon filter designed for reducing moon glare, and a poster of the solar system. The primary mirror is collimated (aligned) at the factory, but the scope does not include collimation aides, tools or instructions. All reflector telescopes show an inverted image, so purchase an optional erector eyepiece for daytime terrestrial viewing. Because the included paper instructions offer limited guidance, we provide buyers with an online full-color photograph, step-by-step assembly guide so you'll be up and running without having to struggle with a complex assembly diagram.

The C6 R-GT refractor combines big 150mm (5.9") achromatic optics of 1200mm focal length (f/8.0) with the CG-5 computerized equatorial mount for a completely automated GoTo observing system. Equipped with high-speed DC servo motors and a NexStar hand controller with 40,000-object database, this scope will take you wherever you tell it to and will get there quickly and accurately. The equatorial mount has precision worm gears on both axes for smooth motion. It has a port for autoguider use in astrophotography, and the hand controller accepts an RS-232 cable for use of astronomy software to control the telescope. The heavy-duty tripod boasts beefy 2" stainless steel legs for excellent stability. The scope comes with a 2" rack-and-pinion focuser that accepts both 2" and 1.25" accessories. Also included are a 20mm (60x) eyepiece, 1.25" star diagonal, 9x50 finder scope, and TheSky Level I astronomy software. Two-year limited warrranty.

The Meade LT 6" f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope provides the backyard astronomer with a feature-filled scope at a very attractive price. The scope's standard equipment AutoStar computer is amazingly simple to set up and operate. You don't have to know Polaris from the Pleiades, or Albireo from Zubeneschamali. All you have to do is level the scope, point it North and tell the AutoStar where you are on Earth and the time and date. The AutoStar computer will do the rest, aligning the scope on the skies and letting you locate dozens of deep space objects like a seasoned observer your first night out. The simple tripod/altazimuth mount configuration of the LT-6SC makes setup fast and easy. The rapid alignment features of the AutoStar computer and its simplified menus will start you observing in only a matter of minutes. The wide array of objects in the LT-6SC database and the 5 arc minute pointing accuracy of the AutoStar computer, will accurately speed you from object to object with no frustrating hunting or star hopping. With the LT-6SC, you'll spend more of your time looking at objects and less time looking for them. If you're one of those busy people whose schedule doesn't leave you much time to enjoy astronomy, an easy to use fully-computerized LT-6SC will make the most of your limited observing opportunities.

If your astrophoto aspirations go beyond our 4.5" Imaging Reflector, step up to this 6" model. Its performance compares with high-end refractors but at a fraction of the price.

Added tube length in front of the secondary mirror blocks glare for better contrast. Images are virtually coma free with no chromatic aberration. The beefy 2" Crayford-style focuser has coarse and fine focus controls, plus a 1.25" compression ring adapter and a dovetail base for an Orion finder scope. Attach to any Orion mount and you'll have one awesome system for imaging or observing! Available as optical tube assembly only. One-year limited warranty.

The Optical Design of the Orion 6" f/9 Ritchey-Chretien Astrograph allows you to capture spectacular, detailed images of deep-sky objects like never before. In contrast to conventional Newtonian reflector and Schmidt-Cassegrain systems that are susceptible to coma away from the center of the field, the Ritchey-Chretien utilizes hyperbolic primary and secondary mirrors to achieve superb flat-field images that are truly coma-free. In the 6" model, mirrors are made of BK-7 optical glass with enhanced aluminum 94% - 96% reflectivity coatings, to provide diffraction-limited performance. Since there are no lenses involved, images are also free from chromatic aberration, which affects all but the finest, most expensive apochromatic refractors. The Orion 6" Ritchey-Chretien Astrograph is ideal for use with small-format CCD cameras like the StarShoot line, as well as DSLR cameras, for deep-sky and solar system astrophotography. The telescope's wide, fully illuminated flat field produces pinpoint star clarity all the way to the edge of the camera's sensor. The Orion 6" Ritchey-Chretien Astrograph features a machined, dual-speed (10:1) Crayford-style focuser with an engraved millimeter scale on the drawtube. One 2-inch and two 1-inch extension rings are included for adjusting the focus position for various cameras. The secondary mirror is precisely center-marked to facilitate collimation. The 19-inch enameled steel optical tube weighs only 12.3 lbs. and features
