Overview

The Dobsonian telescopes are named after John Dobson, an amateur astronomer who designed a very simple but effective telescope, where the key factor is a large aperture for little money. His idea was to mount a Newton telescope on an easy-to-use alt-azimuth mount that does not need time-consuming alignments.

The Sky-Watcher 6' Dobsonian is a large aperture Newtonian reflector telescope with an f/8 focal ratio, making it ideal for wide field and deep-sky observation. A big aperture means better light gathering power and with this Sky-Watcher Telescope, you are able to see prominent deep-sky objects such as nebulae, star clusters and many more. To top it off, the Sky-Watcher Classic Dobsonians are equipped with a 2' rack and pinion focuser and focuser locking screw - to allow easy use of either eyepiece size.
