Hi friends. I have an Orion SkyQuest XT10 Plus. Not too long ago I noticed that all of a sudden,  I could not get clear views of anything,  not even the moon. Everything is hazy.

I collimated the scope, but this has not improved the clarity.

I observe in a dustier than normal environment,  in the middle of a farmer's field. Could a dirty primary mirror be causing the lack of clarity? If so, any suggestions to clean the primary? If not likely,  any suggestions?
