jump to the moon
my husband spent about a week deciding on the perfect scope and looking at ALL types, he decided on the orion. it is FANTASTIC!!!!! he is really enjoying seeing everything there is to see. yes, if you buy this, you too will be outside.

An amazing telescope
I purchased the 130St about two years ago ever since I've had nothing
but enjoyment from this telescope. On my first observation I picked up
the double cluster in Perseus(NGC869 and NGC884) which was so clear the
stars looked like bright pinpoints of perpendicularly crossed lights.
Venus was also quite amazing to see, its cresent disk could be easely
and clearly seen. I later on saw Saturn you can easily see its rings
and moons,and Jupiter was a sight to see with propper focusing you could
easily see its cloud belts. Galaxy's where clearly seen on dark nights
,but don't expect to much on galaxy's because they are so far away even
a twelve inch scope won't pick up much more than a five inch scope.
I can't say enough good about this telescope it comes with great accessories and every thing you need to get you going.

A great scope for quick and casual viewing
I already own an 8 inch GOTO telescope, and although I love it, it is quite an affair to setup, and is quite heavy. I leave my 130 ST scope in the garage, and can be observing in a few minutes. The scope is light but stable, and sturdy. The adjusments are smooth, and with the optional drive, I can track stars, if I will be viewing for a longer time. The planets came sharply into view, so I think it is a great intermediate scope, and one you can take with you on a trip.
(The manual was also very clear)

Product Description

The SpaceProbe 130ST EQ is a rich-field Newtonian reflector with a tube only 24" long compared to the 33" tube length of the standard 130 EQ. The focal length of the ST's 130mm (5.1") primary mirror is 650mm (f/5), producing a wider field of view and brighter images for a given eyepiece focal length. The diffraction-limited parabolic primary mirror is the same type used on much larger reflectors costing substantially more. On a short-focal-length design like this one, a parabolic mirror is a must for delivering sharp, detailed images. This scope package includes an EQ-2 equatorial mount with dual setting circles and manual slow-motion controls, adjustable aluminum tripod with accessory tray, two Plossl eyepieces (25mm and 10mm), and a 6x30 achromatic finder scope. One-year limited warranty.
