I am also wondering if Orion is the same company as Celestron, if anyone knows that answer please post.

No, they are not the same company! I believe they were both bought by Chinese optical giant Synta, but I could be wrong on one or both. Last I heard, Celestron SCs (and some of their other top line scopes) are still made in the USA.
Orion sells many Celestron scopes both as Celestrons and under their own name.
