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).

For the beginning telescope user or family looking for an all-purpose telescope that is as easy to take on vacations as it is to use right from the back yard, the StarBlast 90mm Altazimuth Travel Refractor may be the perfect telescope. It is a quality 90mm achromatic refractor telescope outfitted with a full-length stainless steel tripod and two-way pan head, all of which fit neatly into a rugged carry case with both shoulder and hand straps for convenient transport and storage.

The StarBlast 90mm Altazimuth Travel Refractor features an antireflection coated 90mm achromatic lens system with a 500mm focal length (f/5.6) for vivid images of distant subjects. The 1.25" rack-and-pinion focuser ensures your observing target will snap into sharp focus effortlessly. The rotatable 45-degree correct-image diagonal allows daytime views of terrestrial subjects in their proper orientation. The 5x20 correct-image finder scope provides matching views in a wider field, to make spotting your targets a snap. And for stargazing, this telescope will reveal outstanding views of the Moon's surface, Saturn's rings, and scores of deep-sky nebulas and star clusters. Maximum tripod height is 54.5" with legs fully extended.

Comes with 25mm (20x) and 9mm (56x) Kellner eyepieces (not low-quality Huygenians!), a tethered objective cap, Orion MoonMap 260, and carrying case.
