Star chart conveniently folds up just like a road map for easy storage and transport. Orion DeepMap 600 shows the night sky from declination +90-deg to -60-deg. Back of chart lists essential data for all 600 objects of interest, including a brief visual description of each object - an ideal reference for beginners and advanced observers alike!

    The Orion UltraBlock is the ideal eyepiece filter for deep-sky observers located at highly light-polluted sites.

    Narrowband filter blocks all forms of light pollution. Enhances the presence of a significant number of fainter deep-sky objects

    The Orion Variable Polarizing eyepiece filter acts like a dimmer switch for your telescope,

    to tone down brightness and accentuate contrast of bright celestial objects. Gives you much finer control of the image brightness compared to a standard fixed-transmission telescope eyepiece filter for optimal performance. Adjust the amount of light transmission from 1% to 40% by rotating the eyepiece filter housing
