    Description

    We bought this amazing telescope and extra lens when we retired and moved to the Oregon Coast, not realizing that a foggy, often overcast location might not be the best for night-time viewing.  So we have never really used it or even set it up, and it needs to find a new home where the skies are not cloudy all night.
    It has never been outside and is in like NEW condition.
    This telescope currently retails for ,149.99 but has been on back order for some time, with an expected available date maybe in July.  The 5mm lens is currently for sale at 4.49 but is also currently out of stock, with no known available date.
    So you are getting an "out of box", "like NEW" telescope and wide-field 5mm lens for an incredible price - AND it is available now!
    Here are some highlights from Orion's website of the telescope & lens.
    This big, 5.9" diameter GoTo Mak-Cass boasts a super-long 1800mm focal length and f/12 focal ratio to provide exceptional, high-resolution views of the Moon, planets, and deep-sky objects
    Huge GoTo database of over 42,000 objects, and handy built-in Tour mode means you'll enjoy great views on any clear night
    Once aligned, dual optical encoders on both axes of motion allow manual aiming of the telescope without losing GoTo alignment
    After an object is selected, the StarSeeker IV 150mm locates and tracks it automatically so you can relax and enjoy the view
    Includes GoTo hand controller, 23mm (78x) and 10mm (180x) wide field 60-degree eyepieces, 90-degree diagonal, 2" visual-back, EZ Finder II sight, and more
    Also purchased separately - a 5mm Orion Stratus Wide-Field Eyepiece.
    The ultimate in viewing comfort - our 5mm Stratus telescope eyepiece sports a monster 1-1/4"-diameter eye lens and a generous 20mm eye relief
    An ideal eyepiece for high-power yet wide-field views through a telescope of the Moon, planets and bright deep sky objects
    Large 68-deg apparent field of view for a nice and wide window into the heavens
    Fully multi-coated optical elements feature blackened lens edges for maximized light transmission and excellent contrast
    Usable in both 1.25" and larger 2" telescope focusers thanks to its dual-purpose body
    Note on Shipping - Ships in three rather large boxes.  Using UPS Ground.
