Orion Skyline Green Laser Pointer, 3mW-5mW

Orion Skyline Green Laser Pointer, 3mW-5mW Have you ever wanted to point out the Orion Nebula, or trace the outline of the Sagittarius “Teapot” for someone? You point your finger, but that just doesn’t cut it. “Where? You mean the third star up from that middle pine tree over there?” The SkyLine green laser pointer is perfect for stargazers. Its thin but distinct green laser beam appears to stretch all the way to the stars! A nifty teaching aid, the SkyLine allows you to point out stars, planets, constellations, even moving satellites. Its far-reaching beam is visible not only by the person holding the pointer, but also by others standing nearby. While light emitted by flashlights and red lasers fades out over long distances, the SkyLine’s <5mW green beam goes seemingly to infinity. It works even in light-polluted or moonlit skies! The metal body is 6" long and has a pocket clip. Includes two AAA batteries. Class IIIA laser complies with US 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11. For use by adults only.
