This 80mm GoScope is a step up in size and performance from the popular Orion GoScope III 70mm Refractor Telescope, for those wanting that extra "Wow!" factor.

    The Orion Star Target planisphere is a useful star chart wheel for any day of the year. This circular star map lets you dial-in the month and day you're observing the sky, so you can see exactly which constellations and stars will be visible if skies are clear. Using the Orion Star Target is a great way for starters to plan their first stargazing sessions with the GoScope 80mm Backpack Refractor Telescope, since you'll know just where to point the telescope!

    Doublet lens system is multi-coated for excellent transmission and the internal housing is baffled to eliminate unwanted reflections and increase contrast. Threaded for use with 1.25" Orion telescope eyepiece filters.

    Use the RedBeam Mini LED flashlight to see in the dark without disrupting dark-adapted vision.

    You will get amazing close-up views both day and night with the very capable, wonderfully portable, and oh-so affordable GoScope 80mm Backpack Refractor Telescope! Strap it on today and head out for some memorable visual adventures.
