This is a brand new, factory sealed, Meade Instruments telescope: The Meade 10" LightBridge Truss-Tube Dobsonian Reflector is in a class all of it's own. This fantastic design gives you the power of a professional observatory in a relatively small and portable package. It goes together and can be taken apart in just minutes. This telescope is great for astronomers of all sorts. Beginners, Amateurs, and Professionals can all benefit from the great features this telescope offers. The fast f/6 focal ratio provides amazingly clear deep space views that you would only expect to see in a professional setting. These scopes are versatile, portable, and powerful. There is no other telescope series that can even begin to compare to the Meade LightBridge series. Take a step towards the stars with a LightBridge of your own.

Portable Truss-Tube Design: The open truss-tube design of the telescope means portability of the telescope is vastly improved over solid tube designed reflectors. This design allows for tremendous focal lengths and amazing light gathering power. This means increased clarity for higher magnifications. The Meade 10" LightBridge Truss-Tube Dobsonian Reflector has a focal length of 1270mm and an f/5 focal ratio. The 2" focuser (with 1.25" adaptor) is suitable for the highest performing astronomical eyepieces available. Plus, the unique Crayford-Style focuser gives you complete control over the focus of the telescope. With the included eyepiece you will get a magnification of 49x. That is 49 times larger than the naked eye. If you are looking for even higher magnifications, we carry a full line of Meade Series 4000 eyepieces in our eBay Store.

State-of-the-Art Dobsonian Mount: The dobsonian mount for this telescope exceeds the standard for mechanical strength, stability, and smoothness. It is constructed with sturdy and durable laminated wood and uses two high-precision stainless steel ball bearings in both the Azimuth (side to side) and Altitude (vertical) axes. There is a hand adjustable variable tension brake for smooth and stable movement. The mount also features a built-in objective mirror cooling systems. This advanced feature limits any distortion that might be caused by outside heat. The AutoStar Suite Astronomer Edition planetarium software package included will teach you how to navigate the night sky using your telescope. It is loaded with star charts and tons of information on thousands of stellar objects.
