This has been stored in my shed and the chrome is not as good as it could be, it is purely cosmetic and doesnt affect its functionality in the slightest.I am also including the original instruction manual This is how the telescope is described in the manual:The Meade 8 LX10 Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope is a mirror-lens telescope suitable for both astronomical and terrestrial viewing.

The LX10 utilizes the exact same optical tube assembly as provided with Meade 8 LX50 and 8 LX200 models and yields optical performance identical to that of these more expensive telescopes.The Meade LX10 enables the serious amateur astronomer to view fault lines, craterlets, and pockmarks on the Moon; prominent features of the Martian landscape; the rings of Saturn and several satellites of Saturn; as well as surface phenomena on the planet Jupiter and the four principal satellites of Jupiter.

Beyond the Solar System the LX10 permits detailed observations of nebulae, star clusters, galaxies, and thousands of other deep-space objects.For the astrophotographer the 8 LX10facilitates long-exposure guided photography with its stable fork.
