Orion Sky Quest XT10 Intelliscope
The Orion Sky Quest XT10 Intelliscope is able to gather 56% more
light than an 8 inch mirror. You'll be able to reach stars as faint as
magnitude 15. For easy slewing the XT10's steel optical tube is equipped
with a 2" aluminum rack and pinion focuser, with navigation knob.
The XT10 Intelliscope is among the worlds most dominant 10" Dobsonians.
Orion is proud of its amazing optics, and contemporary new design. This Sky
Quest gives you the luxury to locate more than 14,000 celestial objects,
simply by pushing a button. Just choose the object you want to view and the
Intelliscope Computerized Object Locator's 9,216-step digital encoders will
pinpoint the object, and allow you to guide the scope exactly to it.
The Intelliscope Sky Quest XT10 by Orion provides a very smooth motion of
the telescope on both axes. This is achieved because Orion uses a solid
stable Dobsonian base and improved it with a springless Correc Tension
system that guaranteed enhanced manual tracking control and tube balance.
