Magnification (Power) And Using Eyepieces . ... To determine power in a telescope, divide the focal length of the telescope by the focal length of the eyepiece. By exchanging an eyepiece of one focal length for another, you can increase or decrease the power of the telescope. For example, a 25mm eyepiece used on a telescope with a 1000mm focal length would yield a power of 40x (1000 / 25 = 40) and a 10mm eyepiece used on the same telescope would yield a power of 100x (1000 / 10 = 100). ...

... For the first balloon flight of the Nuclear Compton Telescope (NCT) we have simultaneously reduced lowenergy background and enabled hard X-ray imaging by enshrouding the top of the instrument in a tin shield (bottom had BGO shielding), with part of the shield having strategically placed holes -- a 10% open coded aperture mask working up to 80 keV in conjunction with the finely pixellated double-sided Ge strip detectors. ...

DISCLAIMER: The larger the aperture, the more light a telescope will gather and the fainter the object you can see. Here is a range of magnitudes you might expect to see.
