It is the number of times a telescope magnifies the object and is given by the formula: Focal length of the objective mirror or lens divided by the focal length of the eyepiece being used. Thus, for example, a telescope having 650 mm focal length mirror or lens when used with a 10 mm focal length eyepiece, will give a 650/10 that is 65x power. A telescope comes with many eyepieces and Barlow lenses to give a wide range of magnifications.What is the maximum useful magnification? Using a very long focal length objective and a very short focal length eyepiece, you can get a very high magnification power. However, there is a limit to this. The maximum “useful” magnification is one that will allow the maximum details that can be seen in an object and is roughly 50 to 60 times the diameter of the objective in inches provided always that the optics is of excellent quality. Beyond this, the magnification is considered
