## Description

desertcart.com : Orion StarBlast 4.5 Astro Reflector Telescope MAX Kit for Beginner and Intermediate Astronomy - Includes Eyepieces, Barlow Lens & Accessories : Electronics

Review: Easy, cool looking and user friendly!! - Got this for my 10 year old niece. Know from experience that regular telescopes are IMPOSSIBLE to figure out and use. So I researched for weeks to find a good one that’s user friendly. It’s shiny and a little sparkly and pretty. I put it together in a few minutes. (It’s mostly together on arrival!) I love all the extras I was going to buy anyway, that came with it. Definitely worth the extra $50. At first Orion was backed up until after Christmas but somehow...they got it here maybe a week before!! VERY awesome suprise for that, thank you! It’s easy to figure out. I tried it once so far without using the book, just on general logic. It’s been too cold to get into using it so far but I’m hoping to see Saturn’s rings and Jupiter’s stripes with this in a few months. Did see the moon a little bit in the freezing cold so that was cool. I’ll rate it more this spring when we try it out officially.
Review: Amazing telescope that will please any beginner. - I got this as a gift for my husband who loves astronomy and he couldn’t be happier. We had the privilege of witnessing Saturn and Jupiter closer than ever before and the magnification was able to see Saturn’s rings and Jupiter’s moons. It was amazing! I am so happy with all of it and so is my husband! 10/10 would recommend for anyone!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Can see the rings on Saturn
*by G***. on September 27, 2019*

I bought 2 of these telescopes. One for each of my sons (one in CA and one in OH). This is a very good beginner / intermediate telescope. Powerful enough to see the rings on Saturn and see great detail on the moon. Both of my boys love this telescope and are often outside at night looking at planets and stars. It's portable enough you can put it in the car and take it camping with you. The kit comes with enough to really enjoy looking at the cosmos and was easy to set up. I would recommend buying the laser alignment tool as it makes set up much faster and more accurate.
