I don't know if you know your way around the night sky; if you don't, then the Celestron SLT 127[5" Mak] would suit you down to the ground,[or up to the sky]. It is GoTo, easy to carry fully assembled. You would need to buy a small gel rechargeable battery[ $30-40], as the AAs don't
last that long. It would easily fit in your cupboard. You would need an
extra very low power eyepiece, because, as stated by omegacrux, the field of view is limited, but it's aperture is enough for you to get decent planetary views.
