and nebulas
The ultra-stable Dobsonian base keeps the tube perfectly balanced for point-and-view ease of
use

Includes two Plossl eyepieces, 9x50 finder scope, collimation cap, and eyepiece rack

Now you can enjoy radical resolution for a radically low price. With the XT10 Classic you'll
see details in deep-sky objects you never thought possible, all with the smooth point-and-
view simplicity that SkyQuest XT Dobsonians are famous for.

The XT10 Classic is loaded with outstanding features. The 10" (254mm-diameter) parabolic
primary mirror is made from BK-7 glass for superior image quality and is center-marked for
easier collimation.

The aluminum mirror cell is a high-ventilation Orion design that facilitates efficient mirror cool
-down. It accepts an optional Cooling Accelerator Fan (#7816) for even faster equilibration to
ambient temperature. The upgraded 2" Crayford-style focuser accepts both 2" and 1.25"
eyepieces. And only SkyQuest Dobs sport a navigation knob for easier slewing of the
telescope.

The XT10 is a paragon of solid construction. The enameled steel tube (black) rides on a rock
-sturdy base equipped with a carrying handle. The motion is fluid and easy on both axes,
aided by our innovative CorrecTension system, which ensures smooth manual tracking and
critical tube balance. Also standard with the XT10 are a two Sirius Plossl eyepieces,
eyepiece rack, hard dust cap, and quick collimation cap.

If you're ready to go deep into space without going deep into your bank account, consider the
classic SkyQuest XT10!
