The answer is neutral charge. An atom element will always and has to be stable, in order for this state to happen. The charge of an electron has to be neutral. For atom with neutral charge, the proton will always equal the number of electron.
The gravitational force between two objects is given by:

where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is the separation between the two objects
The distance of the telescope from the Earth's center is

, the gravitational force is

and the mass of the Earth is

, therefore we can rearrange the previous equation to find m2, the mass of the telescope:
