What can you see with 10 inch Dobsonian?
A 10 Inch Dobsonian is a very capable telescope. You can find thousands of objects; galaxies, planets, globular clusters, double stars, and planetary nebulae even in light polluted conditions. If you are able to travel to a dark site, you will be rewarded with even more spectacular views.
What can I see with a 12 inch telescope?
12-inch Telescopes offer exceptional resolution for their size. They can resolve double stars at . 38 arcseconds and can be magnified up to 610 times the human eye. 12″ Optical tubes also make exceptional light gatherers by allowing an observer to see 16.2 magnitude stars!
What can you see with a 14 inch Dobsonian telescope?
The 14” telescope optical tube collapses down to just a little over 38”, allowing you to transport the scope in a majority of vehicles. The large 14” mirror delves deep into the universe, showing you thousands of objects from Saturn, Jupiter, & Mars to galaxies, nebulae and star clusters millions of light years away.

What Can You See with Dobsonian Telescopes?
- Near Space Objects – The Moon, Planets, The Sun.
- Deep Space Objects (DSOs) – Galaxies, Nebulae, Clusters.
- Easy setup and use.
- Portable by design.
- Reflecting telescope.
- Well-adapted.
Which telescope can see the farthest?
The Hubble Space Telescope
The Hubble Space Telescope can see out to a distance of several billions of light-years.
What is the naked eye magnitude limit?
about magnitude 6.5
After dark adaption and under the very best observing conditions, the limiting magnitude of the human eye is about magnitude 6.5.
Can you do astrophotography with a Dobsonian telescope?
Generally, we do NOT recommend doing astrophotography with your Dobsonian telescope, as the lack of a tracking mount or an equatorial mount will make long exposures impossible. That being said, photographs of the Moon, planets, and very short exposures of bright nebulae are doable with the right expectations.
