The temperature at which dew start forming is called the dew point. The condensed moisture as water droplet is dew. Dew is what prevents you from enjoying star gazing with you telescope. As long as the temperature is below dew point, dew will continue to form on your telescope no matter how often you wipe the telescope.

Blocking out stray light will increase the image contract. This is especially obvious and important in daylight viewing. It improves astronomical viewing and astronomical photographic contrast from city observing sites by blocking neighboring stray lights. It also gives a considerable improvement in contrast during daytime terrestrial viewing and is highly recommended for daytime terrestrial photography

How to prevent dew on you telescope

Use a flexible dew shield cap

Use a "Dew Heater" which uses electrical power to raises the temperature of the front lens of the telescope.

How does dew shield cap Work
flexible dew shield cap traps stagnated air in the front of the telescope. The temperature of the stagnate air is slightly higher than ambient temperature and thus prevents dew from forming. This slight different in temperature is enough to stop the dew from forming.

Advantages when using a dew shield cap

Prevent dew condensation allow you to enjoy star gazing.

Blocks stray light from entering the telescope. Stray light lowers the contrast of the viewing image. Blocking out stray light will increase the image contract.

It also gives a considerable improvement in contrast during daytime terrestrial viewing and is highly recommended for daytime terrestrial photography.

What is the disadvantage of other dew shield cap
I bought a brand name flexible dew shield cap. It is make of flexible hard plastic and form the flexible dew shield cap with Velcro strips. This flexible dew shield cap works well except that I have no where to store it. It can be lay flat when not in use. However, it is too long laying flat, too bulky when rolled up. It will not fit in my telescope hard case. There is no good way to store this flexible dew shield cap. I end up leaving this flexible dew shield cap home when I take the telescope on trips. Other flexible dew shield caps that are made of hard plastic have the same storage problem. It is not convenient.
