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" long compared to 33" on the standard 130. The focal length of the ST's 130mm (5.1") 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 EQ-2 equatorial mount and
accessories make this one sweet optical system for astronomy!
Or See All Seconds Currently Available
* Seconds are nearly new items that are otherwise complete and fully
functional.
Most seconds are customer returns or are cosmetically
flawed items discovered during inspection of a production lot. In general, a second is equivalent to the new product in its functionality and will be impossible to distinguish from new by its performance in the field.
Seconds may be ...
Cosmetically imperfect products with small scratches, blemishes, dents, or dings.
Customer returned goods or display models that show some evidence of use or wear.
Optical products with small scratches or blemishes on optics that do not impact optical performance noticeably.
Products that are repaired in a way that returns full functionality and that is cosmetically reasonable.
Products equipped with one or more substitute parts or accessories of comparable value and utility to the original, usually to replace a missing or broken part or accessory on a returned item.
Some seconds may be older versions of a product that do not include newly added features, functionality, or accessories.
Other included items are not always the same between a new item and a second. Seconds are not subject to any promotions that may apply to regular catalog merchandise.
GUARANTEEAll clearance items are
guaranteed to be complete and fully functional. Orion-brand seconds have the same warranty period as their corresponding new product, but no longer than one year. Orion-brand clearance merchandise carries Orion's full 30-day money-back guarantee.
SHIPPING RESTRICTIONS APPLY FOR THESE PRODUCTSDelivery of
any second is not available to Canada and is otherwise subject to the same shipping restrictions as the corresponding new products.
