The Meade 10" Lightbridge is a true astronomical masterpiece. This dobsonian optical tube has abundance of high quality optics to enhance the results. It doesn't stop there however, portability is also an excellence in this scope!

Telescope focal length of 1000mm, focal ratio of f/8.8. Features include a 1.25" rack-and-pinion focuser, equatorial mount with slow motion controls, setting circles, latitude control with scale, two 1.25" eyepieces (MA9mm, MA25mm), easy to use red dot viewfinder, height adjustable full size steel leg tripod with accessory tray, and instructional DVD with astronomical software/star map.

The 12” Lightbridge Dobsonian telescope comes packaged with optical coatings specially designed by Meade to guarantee superior light reflectivity management. The 12” Lightbridge has great accessories that add even more functionality to the scope.

Many people may wonder what makes the 16" Lightbridge Dobsonian mainly different. A popular feature of Meade products is ease of use, and this is more noticeable, enhanced and improved as years go by. As with most people, there is no question that astronomers want to spend the majority of their time observing, not setting up their scope. With this Lightbridge, you can now get this task down before sundown in as easy as 1-2-3!

The 6" Newtonian Reflector is like a little brother to the Meade LightBridge Dobsonians

This affordable 10" astrograph is ideal for capturing stunning deep-sky astro-images.

Orion's 8” aperture deep-sky imaging specialist boasts features usually reserved for much pricier astrophotography telescopes. In fact, the Orion 8” f/3.9 Newtonian Astrograph’s powerful imaging performance easily exceeds what’s achievable with many premium apo refractors costing thousands of dollars more.

It's no wonder customers heap 5-star ratings on these "gentle giants." For not only do their jumbo-sized optics and uncomplicated design bring a "new level of joy to simple observing," raved Astronomy magazine, but they're also the most affordable quality Dobs on the market. SkyQuest XT Classics aren't just good bang for the buck, they're a supernova of telescope value!
