About Orion 27182

The Orion SkyQuest XT6 Computerized Telescope combines powerful 150mm-diameter reflector optics with point-and-view simplicity in one nicely portable package. And with the included IntelliScope Computerized Object Locator, even the novice stargazer can pinpoint the location of 14,000+ celestial wonders stored in the IntelliScope's databank. You just select an object to observe using the Object Locator's illuminated menu buttons (Galaxies, Clusters, Nebulas, etc.), or choose a pre-set tour of the best objects, then press Enter.

The IntelliScope's high-resolution, 9,216-step digital encoders direct the telescope right to the object, placing it squarely in the eyepiece. The XT6 IntelliScope houses a big 150mm parabolic mirror with 80% more light grasp than a 4.5" mirror, for brighter, more detailed images. The streamlined Dobsonian base offers unflinching stability yet easy portability. The scope comes equipped with a 1.25" rack-and-pinion focuser, eyepiece rack, navigation knob, two Plossal eyepieces and now a 6x30 right-angle correct-image finder scope.
