6. It's a 60mm backpack model

It's a great scope. Here's a review that matches my experience in the important respects. I use it lots more than the 90mm scope I sold after getting the Meade. So easy to grab and not heavy. I use a good 7-25mm Zoom eyepiece so I don't have to swap them out and can just adjust the power for the best view. My realistic max is 100x
