If it wasn't for the central obstruction, you would honestly think you were looking through an apochromatic refractor. In fact, in focus images of stars also remind me of looking through a good refractor, as stars are resolved into hard little pinpoints. No coma at all. If all the mirrors that come with these are as good as mine, this is going to be one of those 'scopes that is noted for excellent optics. Moving on past the star test, and into observing as we all like to do it, I have to hand out more accolades to this 'scope.
Planetary images are nothing less than spectacular.
Saturn's ring system reveals all of it's gaps and divisions. The disk of Saturn shows cloud detail that lesser mirrors would have a hard time duplicating on the disk of Jupiter, much less this blander colored, harder to see globe. Speaking of the viewable disks of worlds this 'scope actually resolves Titan into a disk that is a hard globe, not mushy as it is in other ten inch 'scopes I have owned, or used. Looking at Jupiter reveals four moons resolved into disks, and cloud details that are fantastic. I can't wait to see how much of Mars I'll be able to see through this telescope later this spring and summer.
