Their site states:-
"Star Diagonals Many customers have asked if they can use a star diagonal with the Galileoscope. (That's a common accessory that goes between the telescope and eyepiece and enables you to avoid having to crane your neck when observing celestial objects high overhead.) The Galileoscope is designed for straight-through viewing. There's not enough “in focus” to permit the use of most star diagonals (we haven't tested them all, but we haven't found one yet that works)."
I'm not going to let a little statement like "it cannot be done" stop me! Answer, place a barlow before the diagonal. I only had a 3x barlow in 1.25" to test and it works (see below with the Ethos in place!) I have picked up a shorter 1.25" and only 2x overnight (thanks Rob and IIS classifieds) and hope that will work.
