Please Note

Orion has made the difficult decision to close our warehouse facility in the Netherlands. With the continuing supply chain/logistics challenges and slowness in the economy we have found that it is not economically feasible to maintain operations in the UK and Europe.

We have therefore stopped taking orders on this website. We apologize for any inconvenience.

We will continue to have Orion dealers in Europe to meet the needs of Orion consumers. We will also continue to honor the 30-Day product return period as well as honoring the Orion warranty for purchases made in the UK and Europe.

Our US-based Customer Service Representatives are here to help. Contact them via email at support@telescope.com or in the United Kingdom, via phone at 0-800-041-8146 (Monday-Friday between the hours of 1300 and 2400 GMT).

A fun telescope indeed! Beginning astronomers will enjoy hours of stellar exploration with this amazing little tabletop telescope. Designed specifically with first-time telescope buyers and their families in mind, the FunScope is a great way to "test the waters" of stargazing — affordably!

The FunScope is no toy, but it is great for beginners. FunScope is a real reflecting telescope with a 76mm (3") diameter mirror which collects 60% more light than typical 60mm beginner's telescopes for brighter and better views of objects in space.

But what can you see with it? A lot! With the FunScope, the whole family can see craters and mountains on the Moon in exquisite detail. What's more, the FunScope Moon Kit includes the Orion MoonMap 260. This detailed map of the Moon lets budding astronomers learn the official names of Moon features they observe using the FunScope. Great views of bright planets Jupiter and ringed Saturn are also within reach of FunScope.

Unlike many starter telescopes that don't come with add-ons, the FunScope includes a host of useful accessories so you get more out of every night under the stars. You'll get a 20mm eyepiece which gives a 15x view, and a 10mm eyepiece for more powerful 30x views. An included red-dot finder makes aiming easy. The FunScope's sturdy tabletop mount provides smooth up/down and left/right motion, and it arrives pre-assembled in the box so you don't have to worry about assembly. Get your FunScope today!

This complete telescope kit is the perfect gift for beginners!
