{"product_id":"explore-scientific-firstlight-dobsonian-telescope-package-10","title":"Explore Scientific FirstLight Dobsonian Telescope Package - 10\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eNo telescope type has changed the hobby quite as much as the Dobsonian. Before the introduction of the Dobsonian by John Dobson, the vast majority of amateur telescopes consisted of small telescopes with primitive mechanics - barely enough to see the polar caps of Mars or the rings of Saturn. Larger telescopes, such as the Schmidt-Cassegrain were reserved for the wealthy. The ingenious combination of simple yet effective mechanisms with the greatest possible opening gives the Dobsonian telescope a unique triumphant march around the world. Nowhere do you get as much light for your money like a good Dobson.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNow, Explore Scientific has come up with the ultimate universal design. This Dobsonian can be converted into a Newtonian telescope. If you ever wanted to take pictures, simply unscrew the bearings from the tube and place the scope on an EQ mount with the included Vixen style dovetail plate.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe unrivaled stiffness of the included 2.5\" HEX focuser makes focusing easy and allows the use of both 1.25\" and 2\" eyepieces. Including the 2.5\" Hex focuser is a quantum leap for this price class of telescope.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA Red Dot viewfinder as well as a 25mm SPL eyepiece are included with the device. If you want to transport the telescope as compactly as possible, the new 10\" FirstLight Dobsonian \/ Newtonian is easy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Rockerbox can be dismantled with a few tools, because the parts are assembled with metal quick connectors. Thus, a bulky rocker box quickly becomes a handy flat package of boards. The ideal workhorse for the deep sky observers. Details on planets and deep sky objects will be visible even for inexperienced observers. Bright star clusters are resolved to the core, and the sight of the terminator on the moon is an unforgettable experience.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe scope is ready for use with our optional coma corrector.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eFully multi-coated primary mirror\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e10\" aperture provides impressive light-gathering power making this an ideal instrument for deep sky observations\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eScope and mount can be transported in pieces and reassembled within minutes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRockerbox is easy to assemble with few tools and includes accessory tray for eyepieces\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e2.5\" HEX focuser has helical gearing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUniversal design makes it easy for imagers to use the telescope as a traditional Newtonian by removing the bearings from the OTA and attaching the tube to an equatorial mount using the included Vixen-style dovetail plate\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHybrid 2N1 Finder Base installed on the telescope tube\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eModel comes with a 25mm SuperPlössl eyepiece and a red dot viewfinder for locating observing targets\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncluded adapter helps observers use their smart device to capture and share images\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e10\" Dobsonian Telescope\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Explore Scientific ReflexSight\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplore Scientific Astro R-Lite Red Flashlight\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWil Tirion Multi-sided, Multi-latitude Planisphere\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplore Scientific Two-sided Moon Map\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e ","brand":"Explore Scientific","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54066599657815,"sku":"ES-FL-DOB1005-02-PK","price":1127.99,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/9178\/4535\/files\/FL-DOB08_V2_938x938_463b4584-0b86-4a09-9e62-d5e4e3df2099.jpg?v=1784383902","url":"https:\/\/fagerdahen.com\/products\/explore-scientific-firstlight-dobsonian-telescope-package-10","provider":"fagerdahen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
