Although perfect for beginning stargazers this telescope is not a toy! The Orion SkyScanner 100mm TableTop Reflector is just the right size - large enough to see night sky objects yet compact enough to sit on a desk. The wide field of vision is ideal for observing detailed moon craters and even the spectacular rings of Saturn without having to leave town. Under darker skies the SkySkanner has enough light-gathering power to reveal objects as deep as the Milky Way. Complete with 100mm parabolic primary mirror optics made of glass not plastic two 1.25" eyepieces and an EZ finder II reflex sight this 100mm reflector provides up to 40x magnification out of the box and collects over 200 times more light than the unaided eye!
- An ideal entry-level reflector telescope with 100mm parabolic primary mirror optics - no plastic lenses as found in some other telescopes made for beginners
- See hundreds of craters on the Moon detail on Jupiter and other planets even when viewing from relatively bright city locations
- A tabletop telescope big enough to find and observe objects in the night sky but small enough to easily store in a closet or display on a desk
- Perfect reflector telescope for wide-angle low-power viewing of the Milky Way and other deep sky objects when viewing from relatively dark skies
- Includes two 1.25" telescope eyepieces: 20mm (for 20 power magnification) and 10mm (for 40 power magnification) EZ Finder II aiming device Starry Night astronomy software and more!

Walkstool is a unique company making an even more unique and extremely useful product. The Walkstool Comfort is born of fine Swedish engineering and provides a portable posterior platform - in other words a seat for all occasions. Whereas a folding chair or stool is nothing new this Walkstool's clever design makes it stand out from the rest. The two primary issues Walkstool's designers focused on were compact size and load strength and the final product reflects their careful engineering and dedication.
The primary benefit of the Walkstool is the prevention of back strain or fatigue while keeping a person elevated to a comfortable height. This is useful for sports event and press photographers who spend many hours on their feet squatting or on their knees. It is also good for campers and other outdoor enthusiasts or simply anyone who needs a seat in a location where a comfortable chair may be hard to come by.
The Walkstool Comfort line features lightweight and ultra-portable stools with two height positions depending on whether the telescoping legs are extended or not. Transportation of these sub-two lbs stools is a breeze as it collapses into a compact form that can be easily carried in a camera bag backpack or tool bag to be taken just about anywhere. The Comfort line improves on the Basic line with a larger seat different size seat mesh material and larger rubber feet to prevent the stool legs from getting stuck in the mud

Celestron's Moon Filters are economical eyepiece filters for reducing the brightness of the moon and improving contrast so greater detail can be observed on the lunar surface. The clear aperture is 21mm for the 1¼" filter. Transmission is about 18%.1¼" Moon Filter [94119-A]Eyepiece filters are an invaluable aid in lunar and planetary observing. They reduce glare and light scattering increase contrast through selective filtration increase definition and resolution reduce irradiation and lessen eye fatigue. Celestron's filters are made of high quality solid plane parallel glass with excellent homogeneity. They're anti-reflection coated to prevent glaring and ghosting. All eyepiece filters are threaded to fit Celestron's and most other manufacturer's 1¼" eyepieces and offer a full 26mm clear aperture. Celestron filters are mounted in black anodized aluminum cells with the Kodak Wratten Series Number individually engraved and come with a plastic case for safe storage. The cells of each filter are double-threaded so they can be stacked (piggybacked) in various combinations. This allows you to create different color combinations and transmission characteristics or to have the same color characteristic but with a lower transmission. When stacking color filters the effective transmission of the combination you create is equal to the product of the spectral transmission of each of the filters used.The effectiveness of the filters depends on
