Description: | Kids Will Have a Blast Probing the Heavens Orion offers quality telescopes for youngsters that are easy to use and will inspire their natural inclination to explore. The StarBlast, pint-sized in stature, is a real reflecting telescope that's super-simple to use and yet manufactured with the kind of quality you'd expect in more expensive models.
The StarBlast is a point-and-view telescope that swivels smoothly on its sturdy, low-profile base. It comes pre-assembled and ready for action right out of the box! Just carry it outdoors by its built-in handle, place it on the ground or on a picnic bench, and let the fun begin!
Inside the StarBlast's aluminum tube are quality telescope optics, including a 113mm (4.5") parabolic mirror. Kids will see spectacular views of the Moon's craters, the planets, star clusters, and lots of other exotic space stuff. Aiming the StarBlast is easy with the EZ Finder II "red dot" finder scope.
