Astro-Tecch AT16D 16-inch Trust-Tube Dobsonian Telescope
http://www.greatredspot.com/Astro-Te...0Telescope.htm
Despite its large aperture, the 16" Astro-Tech Dobsonian is easy to get to your favorite observing site, whether that be your own back yard or a dark sky site miles out of town. Unlike a bulky Sonotube or metal tube Dobs, you don’t need a van or small truck to transport this big 16" scope to the dark sky sites it needs to perform at its best. The 16" Astro-Tech breaks down into a few compact components that fit into virtually any car trunk or into the back seat of just about any compact car. It weighs only 134 pounds fully assembled. Assemble the AT16D in just a few minutes, with no tools needed, and you’re ready for an evening of fascinating viewing at your favorite dark sky location.
Because of its compact individual component sizes and reasonably light component weights, the 16" Astro-Tech can easily be transported and assembled by one dedicated individual, although two people will generally make it easier to assemble aluminum upper cage to the truss tubes. Set-up time is only about 15-20 minutes.
While it is in deep space observing of galaxies and nebulas from a dark sky observing site that the 16" Astro-Tech Dobsonian excels, significant planetary and lunar observing is also within its capability. Small details in the atmospheres of Jupiter and Saturn and on the surface of Mars reveal themselves at high powers given suitably good seeing. All you need is steady skies and a neutral density eyepiece filter to cut down the immense brightness of solar system objects seen through this immense “light bucket."
The 218 pound shipping weight 16" Astro-Tech Dobsonian is shipped freight-free directly to you via air freight.
Simply-made, but with precision optics, this Astro-Tech 16" Dobsonian reflector will reward you with thousands of bright deep space views and years of trouble-free observing enjoyment.

• 1/12th wave p-to-p wave BK-7 optics
• 18-point primary mirror floatation system
