## Questions & Answers

**Q: what are all the planets we can see with this ? and is this telescope better then  Celestron AstroMaster 114EQ Telescope**
A: Thats a very good question. Both telescopes have pros and cons. 114 eq=more aperture,lesser price,better mount for photography,will resolve more in sky but heavy,complicated for a beignner , difficult to carry to darker sites for astronomy.Orion starmax 90=portable,great ease of use , high quality plossl eyepieces and more powerful and good on planets. Downside -does not has a full fledged tripod , lesser aperture , so lesser performance on deep sky stuff in comparsion to 114 eq and expensive too.Both telescopes will show moon,saturn,jupiter,venus and mars -when closer to earth. If you want to travel and carry your scope and want ease of set up , then orion starmax 90 is for you. If you want to enjoy deep sky and want to do astrophotography and have a slr camera and do not mind a heavy telescope , which is slightly difficult to set up then 114 eq is for you.  Fellow astronomers can guide you in your area on both telescopes. cheers

**Q: Dear Mohit 
Typically what would be the cost of the tripod if we need to buy it separately ?**
A: Hi there , There is a table top tripod already company is giving with. so you can use your scope straightaway. But you will need this to place atop a table for required height. In case you wish to buy a stand also , buy a az3 stand , will cost rs 11000 plus shipping.thanks

**Q: Can we not see planets beyond saturn with this scope? i can see saturn even with my 60 mm aperture refractor scope.**
A: Dear Mr.Abhinit Rai, First of all Orion Star Max 90mm is a Maksutov Cassegrain telescope which has a higher optic quality than a normal 60mm refractor. And Secondly, This has a very high length focal length of 1250 mm Which would enable you to see a  large number of Deep sky objects and the other objects in the solar system,magnified 3-4 times higher than your refractor. We are sure that Orion Star max 90mm has equivalent performance as that of a 6 inch dobsonian.

**Q: Can I use a Barlow lens with this telescope?**
A: Dear customer, yes you can use barlow with this telescope.
