Classic 200P Dobsonian

The Classic 200P delivers bright views of deep sky objects like nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies using a simple Dobsonian design with a tube, two mirrors, and a swiveling, tilting base. Its large parabolic Borosilicate primary mirror is treated with an aluminum coating that brings its reflectivity to 94%, with a secondary mirror obstruction of just 6% by area. With a visual limiting magnitude of 14, this 8-inch scope is ideal for observing faint nebulas, galaxies, and star clusters, particularly from a dark sky site. The telescope breaks down into a 48-inch 24 pound optical tube and 25 pound wooden rocker box, weighing only 49 pounds fully assembled and requiring no tools to assemble.
