Orion 09007 SpaceProbe 130ST Equatorial Reflector Telescope (Black)

Orion 09007 SpaceProbe 130ST Equatorial Reflector Telescope (Black)

Our largest aperture SpaceProbe reflector telescope is the niftiest Newtonian reflector on an equatorial mount we've seen in a long time. The Orion SpaceProbe 130ST EQ Reflector Telescope is a step up from the standard SpaceProbe 130 EQ for the more serious beginning or intermediate stargazer who wants additional performance, particularly for targeting deep-sky objects. Just what's so nifty about the Orion SpaceProbe 130ST Equatorial Reflector Telescope? The answer is best described as short and sweet. First, the short. This ST, or Short Tube, version of the SpaceProbe 130 reflector is indeed more compact than the standard model. The 130ST reflector telescope's optical tube measures 24 inches long compared to 33 inches on the standard 130. The focal length of the ST's 130mm (5.1inch) primary mirror is 650mm (f/5), yielding a wider field of view and brighter images for a given telescope eyepiece focal length. That brings us to sweet. The 130mm aperture primary is a diffraction-limited parabolic mirror, the same type used on much larger reflector telescopes costing many times as much. On a short-focal-length design like this one, a parabolic mirror is a must for focusing incoming light to a point and delivering sharp, detailed images. Moreover, the secondary mirror is held in an advanced holder with thin 0.5mm metal vanes, to reduce diffraction spikes and light loss. These features combined with the included 25mm (26x power) and 10mm (65x power) Sirius Plossl telescope eyepieces and quick-release 6x30 achromatic finder scope make this one sweet optical system for astronomy! The SpaceProbe 130ST EQ reflector telescope also includes a collimation cap and center-marked primary mirror for easy optical alignment. The Orion SpaceProbe 130ST telescope comes on a sturdy and precise EQ-2 equatorial mount with dual setting circles and slow-motion hand controls.

Orion 15178 Waist Case Accessory Holder

Orion 15178 Waist Case Accessory Holder

If you're like us, when you observe with your telescope you use a few favorite eyepieces, a Barlow lens, maybe some filters, and a red flashlight to see what you're doing. Trouble is, it's not very convenient fumbling around in the tripod's accessory tray to find these things. And your observing table is almost never within arm's reach of the telescope's eyepiece. That's where the Waist Case comes in. It keeps all your often-used accessories literally on you, organized, protected, and within easy reach. It's a rugged polyester hip pack designed exclusively for the amateur astronomer. Its custom foam interior has seven die-cut holes to hold up to seven 1.25" eyepieces, or three 2" eyepieces, three 1.25" eyepieces, and a short Barlow. Waist Case fits eyepieces with up to 2" diameter body. It has pockets on top, in front, and on the sides for holding filters and other accessories. The top flap unzips and folds back, out of the way, if desired. Fits waist sizes up to 58".
