The mass it takes to make a rigid alt\/az mount is substantially less, leading to cost savings. Unlike German Equatorial mounts, there are no meridian flips to deal with, and no  large protruding counterweights to create a dangerous hazard in a public observatory. Alt\/Az is more intuitive to use and no polar alignment is needed.

Designed for today's astro imager, Photron™ truss tube RC telescopes deliver a sharp clear image from one edge to the other.

The RC optical design delivers coma, spherical and chromatic aberration free results, perfect for color and monochrome imaging. A fixed position primary mirror eliminates image shift that occurs when focusing from other telescope designs. With 1\/12th wave or better primary mirror our RC scopes delver images and views that are out of this world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach Photron truss tube instrument comes equipped with a dual-speed linear bearing Crayford focuser that can facilitate our optional ASCOM compliant electronic focus control. Three focuser extension rings are provided for a “flex-free” solid extension as a means to take up any unneeded back focus. Its backbone, made up of strong, light, carbon fiber truss supports hold the optics firmly in place while keeping weight to a minimum. It's open air design results in rapid cooling, reducing the \"wait time\" before use.

Upgrades include a more streamlined design with balanced motor positioning, a sleek thru-mount cable management system and repositioned power hub with a more ergonomic feel to your setup and workflow. Also included are internal USB hub, larger saddle knobs for ease of use in cold weather, homing sensors to keep your mount oriented, physical hard stop to prevent cable snap, larger locking levers for ease of use, thread-on aircraft power connector for a secure connection, PC direct control, PPEC training for tack sharp images, and more!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhisper-quiet dual belt drives greatly reduce periodic error while providing enhanced tracking and guiding. Gears measuring over eight inches in diameter help handle large payloads and provide smooth tracking. The fully realized cable management system eliminates cable drag and makes remote setups ridiculously convenient.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor users already familiar with previous Sky-Watcher mounts, the EQ8-R is a substantial upgrade, but with familiar features that will help dampen the learning curve. This is an observatory-class mount designed to be controlled PC Direct or even completely remote and yet, the EQ8-R can still be run by the tried-and-true SynScan V5 hand controller with a 42,000+ object database. Two large carrying handles make set up and takedown less awkward. Other features include a super sturdy adjustable portable pier tripod, D-style dovetail saddle, two 22-pound counterweights, DC power cord, and built-in USB PC control.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e110-pound (50kg) Payload\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAll-metal precision internal construction makes this mount extremely strong and stable.

Classic 250P Dobsonian Telescope (S11620)","description":"\u003ch1\u003eSky-Watcher Classic 250P Dobsonian Telescope\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing large apertures and easy functionality, Sky-Watcher’s Classic Dobsonian is the ideal beginner scope. Often referred to as ‘light buckets’, Dobsonians provide users with the highest possible aperture for their money when compared to telescopes of a similar size, such as Schmidt-Cassegrains or refractors. Developed in the 1970s, the Dobsonian-style telescope is an inexpensive solution for bright, detailed visual observing using a simple design. The name ‘Dobsonian’ comes from the telescope’s inventor, John Dobson, a Vedanta monk who popularized sidewalk astronomy and dedicated his life to astronomy outreach. Dobson was notorious for constructing large aperture reflecting telescopes capable of deep sky viewing, using low cost materials. These were often made with found materials, heavy cardboard tubes, recycled porthole glass, and plywood mounts. Dobson, who literally wrote the book on how and why to make amateur telescopes, encouraged other astronomers to assemble their own telescopes and taught workshops on telescope making.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Classic Dobsonian uses a parabolic primary mirror design, constructed of borosilicate, then polished and coated with our proprietary Radiant™ Aluminum Quartz (RAQ™), producing a remarkable 94% reflectivity. With a 10-inch aperture, the Classic 250P Dobsonian is 1235 times brighter than the human eye! This simple yet effective design is perfect for visual observation of faint objects, such as nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSupporting the Classic Dobsonian is more than just a simple rocker box. The base uses Teflon™ bearings for smooth, easy azimuth slewing and a patented tension control handle to lock the telescope in place. Once locked on an object, the telescope can support both 1.25-inch accessories as well as the heavier 2-inch eyepieces, allowing you to use virtually any eyepiece on the market. The Classic Dobsonian includes two 1.25-inch eyepieces, a 1.25-inch adapter, a 2-inch eyepiece adapter, dust caps and a 9x50 finderscope.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAt Sky-Watcher, we stay true to the traditional John Dobson design, using just two mirrors, a metal tube, and a simple rocker box. Although we love computerized telescopes, using a star chart to find objects by hand can be far more fulfilling and will improve your knowledge of the night sky. Unplug your electronic devices, step outside, and become immersed in the wonders of the universe. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAdditional Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAffordable, large 250mm aperture delivers stunning viewing experience\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e56% brighter than the Classic 200P Dobsonian\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePatented tension control handle allows for precise slewing and maximum stability\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eParabolic primary mirror with Radiant™ Aluminum Quartz (RAQ™)\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHeavy-duty rocker box with Teflon™ bearings\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e2-inch Crayford-style focuser with 1.25-inch adapter allows for use of nearly any eyepiece\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"box-sizing: inherit;

Often referred to as ‘light buckets’, Dobsonians provide users with the highest possible aperture for their money when compared to telescopes of a similar size, such as Schmidt-Cassegrains or refractors. Developed in the 1970s, the Dobsonian-style telescope is an inexpensive solution for bright, detailed visual observing using a simple design. The name ‘Dobsonian’ comes from the telescope’s inventor, John Dobson, a Vedanta monk who popularized sidewalk astronomy and dedicated his life to astronomy outreach. Dobson was well known for constructing large aperture reflecting telescopes capable of deep sky viewing, using low cost materials. These were often made with found materials, heavy cardboard tubes, recycled porthole glass, and plywood mounts. Dobson, who literally wrote the book on how and why to make amateur telescopes, encouraged other astronomers to assemble their own telescopes and taught workshops on telescope making.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Classic Dobsonian uses a parabolic primary mirror design, constructed of borosilicate, then polished and coated with our proprietary Radiant™ Aluminum Quartz (RAQ™) producing a remarkable 94% reflectivity. With an 8-inch aperture, the Classic 200P Dobsonian is 816 times brighter than the human eye! This simple yet effective design is perfect for visual observation of faint objects, such as nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSupporting the Classic Dobsonian is more than just a simple rocker box. The base uses Teflon™ bearings for smooth, easy azimuth slewing and a patented tension control handle to lock the telescope in place. Once locked on an object, the telescope can support both 1.25-inch accessories as well as the heavier 2-inch eyepieces, allowing you to use virtually any eyepiece on the market. The Classic Dobsonian includes two 1.25-inch eyepieces, a 1.25-inch adapter, a 2-inch eyepiece adapter, dust caps and a 9x50 finderscope.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAt Sky-Watcher, we stay true to the traditional John Dobson design, using just two mirrors, a metal tube, and a simple rocker box. Although we love computerized telescopes, using a star chart to find objects by hand can be far more fulfilling and will improve your knowledge of the night sky. Unplug your electronic devices, step outside, and become immersed in the wonders of the universe. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAffordable, large 200mm aperture delivers stunning viewing experience\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e78% brighter than 150mm model\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatented tension control handle allows for precise slewing and maximum stability\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParabolic primary mirror with Radiant™ Aluminum Quartz (RAQ™)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty rocker box with Teflon™ bearings\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-inch Crayford-style focuser with 1.25-inch adapter allows for use of nearly any eyepiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec-table\" style=\"box-sizing: inherit;

Often referred to as ‘light buckets’, Dobsonians provide users with the highest possible aperture for their money when compared to telescopes of a similar size, such as Schmidt-Cassegrains or refractors. Developed in the 1970s, the Dobsonian-style telescope is an inexpensive solution for bright, detailed visual observing using a simple design. The name ‘Dobsonian’ comes from the telescope’s inventor, John Dobson, a Vedanta monk who popularized sidewalk astronomy and dedicated his life to astronomy outreach. Dobson was well known for constructing large aperture reflecting telescopes capable of deep sky viewing, using low cost materials. These were often made with found materials, heavy cardboard tubes, recycled porthole glass, and plywood mounts. Dobson, who literally wrote the book on how and why to make amateur telescopes, encouraged other astronomers to assemble their own telescopes and taught workshops on telescope making.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Classic Dobsonian uses a parabolic primary mirror design, constructed of borosilicate, then polished and coated with our proprietary Radiant™ Aluminum Quartz (RAQ™), producing a remarkable 94% reflectivity. With a 6-inch aperture, the Classic 150P Dobsonian is 460 times brighter than the human eye! This simple yet effective design is perfect for visual observation of faint objects, such as nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSupporting the Classic Dobsonian is more than just a simple rocker box. The base uses Teflon™ bearings for smooth, easy azimuth slewing and a patented tension control handle to lock the telescope in place. Once locked on an object, the telescope can support both 1.25-inch accessories as well as the heavier 2-inch eyepieces, allowing you to use virtually any eyepiece on the market. The Classic Dobsonian includes two 1.25-inch eyepieces, a 1.25-inch adapter, a 2-inch eyepiece adapter, dust caps and a 6x30 finderscope.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAt Sky-Watcher, we stay true to the traditional John Dobson design, using just two mirrors, a metal tube, and a simple rocker box. Although we love computerized telescopes, using a star chart to find objects by hand can be far more fulfilling and will improve your knowledge of the night sky. Unplug your electronic devices, step outside, and become immersed in the wonders of the universe. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAffordable, large 150mm aperture delivers stunning viewing experience\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e232% brighter than 100mm refractor\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatented tension control handle allows for precise slewing and maximum stability\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParabolic primary mirror with Radiant™ Aluminum Quartz (RAQ™) coatings\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty rocker box with Teflon™ bearings\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-inch rack-and-pinion focuser with 1.25-inch adapter allows for use of nearly any eyepiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"box-sizing: inherit;

Often referred to as ‘light buckets’, Dobsonians provide users with the highest possible aperture for their money when compared to telescopes of a similar size, such as Schmidt-Cassegrains or refractors. Developed in the 1970s, the Dobsonian-style telescope is an inexpensive solution for bright, detailed visual observing using a simple design. The name ‘Dobsonian’ comes from the telescope’s inventor, John Dobson, a Vedanta monk who popularized sidewalk astronomy and dedicated his life to astronomy outreach. Dobson was well known for constructing large aperture reflecting telescopes capable of deep sky viewing, using low cost materials. These were often made with found materials, heavy cardboard tubes, recycled porthole glass, and plywood mounts. Dobson, who literally wrote the book on how and why to make amateur telescopes, encouraged other astronomers to assemble their own telescopes and taught workshops on telescope making.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Flextube Dobsonian innovates on that original design, offering users the ability to collapse the optical tube using a proprietary truss-tube system while retaining its collimation. The optical tube uses a parabolic primary mirror, constructed of borosilicate, then polished and coated with our proprietary Radiant™ Aluminum Quartz (RAQ™), producing a remarkable 94% reflectivity. With a 10-inch aperture, the Flextube 250P Dobsonian collects 1235 times more light than the human eye! This simple yet effective design is perfect for visual observation of faint objects, such as nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSupporting the Flextube Dobsonian is more than just a simple rocker box. The base uses Teflon™ bearings for smooth, easy Azimuth slewing and a patented tension control handle to lock the telescope in place. Once locked on an object, the telescope can support both 1.25-inch eyepieces as well as the heavier 2-inch eyepieces, allowing you to use virtually any eyepiece on the market. All Flextube Dobsonians come with a slew of accessories, including: two 1.25-inch eyepieces, a 1.25-inch eyepiece adapter, a 2-inch eyepiece adapter, dust caps, and a 8x50 finderscope.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAt Sky-Watcher, we stay true to the traditional John Dobson design, while offering a fresh look for the 21st century. Although we love computerized telescopes, using a star chart to find objects by hand can be far more fulfilling and will improve your knowledge of the night sky.

Often referred to as ‘light buckets’, Dobsonians provide users with the highest possible aperture for their money when compared to telescopes of a similar size, such as Schmidt-Cassegrains or refractors. Developed in the 1970s, the Dobsonian-style telescope is an inexpensive solution for bright, detailed visual observing using a simple design. The name ‘Dobsonian’ comes from the telescope’s inventor, John Dobson, a Vedanta monk who popularized sidewalk astronomy and dedicated his life to astronomy outreach. Dobson was well known for constructing large aperture reflecting telescopes capable of deep sky viewing, using low cost materials. These were often made with found materials, heavy cardboard tubes, recycled porthole glass, and plywood mounts. Dobson, who literally wrote the book on how and why to make amateur telescopes, encouraged other astronomers to assemble their own telescopes and taught workshops on telescope making.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Flextube Dobsonian innovates on that original design, offering users the ability to collapse the optical tube using a proprietary truss-tube system while retaining its collimation. The optical tube uses a parabolic primary mirror, constructed of borosilicate, then polished and coated with our proprietary Radiant™ Aluminum Quartz (RAQ™), producing a remarkable 94% reflectivity. With an 8-inch aperture, the Flextube 200P Dobsonian collects 816 times more light than the human eye! This simple yet effective design is perfect for visual observation of faint objects, such as nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSupporting the Flextube Dobsonian is more than just a simple rocker box. The base uses Teflon™ bearings for smooth, easy Azimuth slewing and a patented tension control handle to lock the telescope in place. Once locked on an object, the telescope can support both 1.25-inch eyepieces as well as the heavier 2-inch eyepieces, allowing you to use virtually any eyepiece on the market. All Flextube Dobsonians come with a slew of accessories, including: two 1.25-inch eyepieces, a 1.25-inch eyepiece adapter, a 2-inch eyepiece adapter, dust caps, and a 8x50 finderscope.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAt Sky-Watcher, we stay true to the traditional John Dobson design, while offering a fresh look for the 21st century. Although we love computerized telescopes, using a star chart to find objects by hand can be far more fulfilling and will improve your knowledge of the night sky.

Big aperture, bigger attitude, with all the innovations that make Sky-Watcher the obvious choice when hunting for that Goldilocks zone where value meets desire. Ranging from the standard 8 to a whopping 16 inches in diameter, Flextube SynScan Dobsonians are precision engineered instruments that will allow you to easily find and enjoy viewing night sky treasures such as planets and the Moon, nebulae, star clusters, galaxies and much more. With its patented collapsible tube design, these Dobsonians are truly the ultimate in portability and performance which is crucial when travelling to dark skies to make the most of these impressively large telescopes.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe elegant truss tube design was carefully engineered to combine ease of use, extreme portability, and consistent performance in an affordable package. Unlike other truss tube designs, the Flextube Dobsonian does not need to be disassembled between uses. It transports as two compact pieces (optical tube and rocker box) that can be assembled and ready to use in just seconds! It is easy to collimate once set up, and it holds its collimation throughout the evening and even after being collapsed! The patented Tension Control Handle allows users to add or reduce tension, thereby increasing or decreasing the friction between the optical tube and the sideboards.

Big aperture, bigger attitude, with all the innovations that make Sky-Watcher the obvious choice when hunting for that Goldilocks zone where value meets desire. Ranging from the standard 8 to a whopping 16 inches in diameter, Flextube SynScan Dobsonians are precision engineered instruments that will allow you to easily find and enjoy viewing night sky treasures such as planets and the Moon, nebulae, star clusters, galaxies and much more.

Unlike other truss tube designs, the Flextube Dobsonian does not need to be disassembled between uses. It transports as two compact pieces (optical tube and rocker box) that can be assembled and ready to use in just seconds! It is easy to collimate once set up, and it holds its collimation throughout the evening and even after being collapsed! The patented Tension Control Handle allows users to add or reduce tension, thereby increasing or decreasing the friction between the optical tube and the sideboards. The patented Freedom Find dual encoder design allows the telescope to be moved manually whenever the user wishes - but with no need for re-alignment!\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe SynScan hand controller allows you to point your telescope to a specific object, or even tour the best objects in the night sky at the touch of a button!!

While this may be acceptable for some visual observing, stars will appear out of focus at the edge when used with the flat chip sensor of a digital camera. EdgeHD optics produce a focal plane more than three-times flatter than a standard Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope and dramatically flatter than competing coma-free designs. This guarantees you visibly sharp stars across some of the largest CCD chips available today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImproved Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuperior edge performance not only creates rounder, more pleasing stars, but actually improves the resolution and limiting magnitude when compared to telescopes of equal aperture.

From design to manufacture, our goal with the Corrected Dall-Kirkham (CDK) 20″ telescope was centered around performance and ease of use. The CDK20 is an incredible breakthrough in telescope technology and produces no off-axis coma and no off-axis astigmatism. Additionally, the CDK20 provides a perfectly flat field so your astrophotographs will have stunning clarity from corner to corner of the image without field curvature degrading the photos. Offering the simplicity of single-mirror collimation, the stray light control of advanced baffles, structural performance created through finite element analysis (FEA), and decades of telescope design experience, the CDK20 is an exceptional diffraction-limited telescope. CDK20 users can experience pinpoint stars edge-to-edge and a 52 x 52 arcminute field of view when using large 16803 size camera sensors. When equipment fades into the background and simply performs, the astrophotography experience becomes even more fun and rewarding!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"block-feature col-sm-12\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCarbon Fiber Truss Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-3 image\" style=\"text-align: left;\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg data-ll-status=\"loaded\" class=\"lazyloaded\" alt=\"Icon\" src=\"https:\/\/planewave.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/CF-truss-295x200.jpg\" style=\"float: left;\" data-mce-style=\"float: left;\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/planewave.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/CF-truss-295x200.jpg\" width=\"196\" height=\"133\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-9 col_content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMinimizes thermal expansion which causes focus shift as temperature changes during an imaging session.

From design to manufacture, our goal with the Corrected Dall-Kirkham (CDK) 14″ telescope was centered around performance and ease of use. The CDK14 is an incredible breakthrough in telescope technology and produces no off-axis coma and no off-axis astigmatism. Additionally, the CDK14 provides a perfectly flat field so your astrophotographs will have stunning clarity from corner to corner of the image without field curvature degrading the photos. Offering the simplicity of single-mirror collimation, the stray light control of advanced baffles, structural performance created through finite element analysis (FEA), and decades of telescope design experience, the CDK14 is an exceptional diffraction-limited telescope. CDK14 users can experience pinpoint stars edge-to-edge and a 70 x 70 arcminute field of view when using large 16803 size camera sensors. When equipment fades into the background and simply performs, the astrophotography experience becomes even more fun and rewarding!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"block-feature col-sm-12\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCarbon Fiber Truss Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"col-md-3 image\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"float: left;\" src=\"https:\/\/planewave.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/CF-truss-295x200.jpg\" alt=\"Icon\" class=\"lazyloaded\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"float: left;\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/planewave.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/CF-truss-295x200.jpg\" width=\"170\" height=\"115\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-9 col_content\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMinimizes thermal expansion which causes focus shift as temperature changes during an imaging session.

The mass it takes to make a rigid alt\/az mount is substantially less, leading to cost savings. Unlike German Equatorial mounts, there are no meridian flips to deal with, and no  large protruding counterweights to create a dangerous hazard in a public observatory. Alt\/Az is more intuitive to use and no polar alignment is needed.

workhorse CGEM mount lineup has been the German Equatorial backbone for telescopes ranging from 6 to 11 inches of aperture. Since that time, many more astro-imagers and planetarium controlled setups have emerged as backyard telescope technology has evolved. Celestron’s engineering team applied their years of experience designing German Equatorial mounts to the all-new CGX EQ, a culmination of all the advancements made to our technologies, value, and ease-of-use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CGX was designed to better support your telescope for both visual and astro-imaging pursuits. Key design goals included a lower profile EQ head, which provides a more compact and therefore more stable setup; a better drive system; remote operation-friendly with home and limit optical sensors; easier polar alignment adjustments; and better cable management. In addition to that, we’ve made mechanical and ergonomic improvements throughout to make the mount sturdier, easier to use, and transport. The CGX is our new Equatorial backbone to support a wide range of telescopes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCGX Mount and Tripod Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-new design.

This incredibly fast f\/2.0 system is the perfect companion to today’s color astronomical CMOS cameras, smaller CCD cameras, and mirrorless cameras. Thanks to its fast focal ratio and patented optical design, you can produce sharp, detailed images and, in many cases, skip the autoguider completely. Weighing in at just 17 pounds, it’s easy to transport your 8” RASA to the most remote dark sky locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 8” RASA is an imaging telescope that delivers a flat field without optical aberrations for razor sharp stars across a wide field of view. It can capture stunning deep-sky astronomical images without the challenges typically presented by longer focal length instruments at a fraction of the cost of those systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe latest addition to the RASA family, this 8” version is a much more portable and affordable version of the heralded RASA 11, which was introduced to much acclaim in 2014. With the 8” RASA joining the lineup, a wider range of astroimagers can enjoy the benefits of the RASA design. It has many of the same thoughtfully designed features as its “big brother” RASA 11, including the integrated air-cooling system, internal filter mount, and sturdy CGE dovetail mounting bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePurely designed for imaging, the 8” RASA cannot be used visually. The prime focus focal plane is located at the front of the optical system, so it cannot accommodate a traditional eyepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShorter Exposure Times and Virtual “Real-Time” Observing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince it is an F\/2.0 optical system, imagers can use shorter exposure times to capture detail in faint objects. When combined with sensitive cameras and the proper “live stacking” software, the 8” RASA can provide an almost real-time observing experience. View images on a computer instantly that are brighter and more detailed than can be seen in much bigger telescopes with the naked eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra-Stable Focus System\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the launch of the 8” RASA, Celestron is unveiling a focuser design that mitigates lateral movement of the primary mirror when focusing, slewing, or tracking with the astrograph. Focusing is easier, more accurate, and more stable than ever. The key to the Ultra-Stable Focus System is a precision linear ball bearing, which is tested during assembly to ensure optimal results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt for Today’s Latest Cameras\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike the larger RASAs that work with DSLR and large CCD cameras, the 8” model was designed with color astronomical CMOS cameras, smaller CCD cameras, and mirrorless cameras in mind. The telescope does not work with standard DSLR cameras. It is optimized for sensors with up to a 22mm diagonal, but performs well with sensors up to 32mm diagonal. The APS-C sized sensors used in many mirrorless cameras are a good choice. 42mm full frame sensors will also work, but performance will be poor at the edges of the sensor and field illumination will be reduced. Additionally, we do not recommend pairing RASA 8 with any camera body more than 4” in diameter. See the chart below to determine if your camera is compatible with RASA 8.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px; color: #333e48; font-family: 'Open Sans', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

The design consists of a Schmidt corrector, primary mirror, lens group, and optical window. The lens group contains 4 elements and utilizes rare-earth elements. Unlike many telescopes that only perform well over the visible spectrum (400-700nm), the 8” RASA’s optics are designed to perform over a wider spectral range, from 400-800nm. This allows more of the light emitted from the astronomical object to be sharply focused in the image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith many imaging systems, adding an extra piece of flat glass such as a filter does not change optical performance. However, that is not the case with super-fast optical systems like the RASA. Our engineers addressed this by designing the RASA with a removeable optical window, so you can maintain peak optical performance if a filter is added or if a camera has its own optical window. Celestron offers a Light Pollution Imaging Filter designed specifically for the 8” RASA, which mounts in place of the optical window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll refractive optical surfaces are coated with StarBright XLT coatings, while the primary mirror uses enhanced aluminum coatings. This maintains high light transmission through the entire optical system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen compared with “Hyperstar SCT” systems, the RASA 8 provides better optical performance and field illumination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCGEM II: An Excellent Platform for RASA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCGEM II is a sturdy equatorial mount capable of rigidly supporting the 8” RASA. Its 40 lb load capacity can handle the 17 lb optical tube with ease, leaving lots of capacity to spare for your camera and any accessories. The heavy-duty adjustable height tripod has 2” diameter steel tripod legs with graduated markings that make it easy to extend the legs to the same height. The 8” RASA connects directly to the CGEM II with its CGE dovetail mounting bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mount is packed with functionality and conveniences that make imaging with the 8” RASA easy. The fully computerized mount will automatically “GoTo” any of the 40,000+ astronomical objects selected from the NexStar+ hand controller’s database and automatically track the object as it appears to move across the night sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned with imaging in mind, the CGEM II motor drive system accurately tracks during an exposure. At the heart of the system are low cog DC servo motors with integrated optical encoders. The low cog design helps the motors run smoothly, while the integrated optical encoders provide accuracy. The motors turn steel worm gears, which are supported by precision bearings, against brass worm wheels. These components also help to make the motor drive system operate smoothly and accurately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo track objects in the night sky, the mount must first be polar-aligned. Celestron makes this process easier than ever with the innovative All-Star Polar Alignment procedure. No extra equipment, such as a polar finder scope, is required. (An optional polar alignment finder scope is available if desired.) Best of all, the alignment can usually be completed in about 15 minutes, even without a clear view of Polaris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll mounts have some amount of “periodic tracking error” inherent in them caused by tiny gear imperfections. To mitigate this, the CGEM II has Permanent Periodic Error Correction (PPEC). This allows you to run a routine to record the periodic errors only once; the recording is kept in memory, and subsequently corrects for the mount’s periodic tracking error. If an even higher level of tracking accuracy is desired, the CGEM II also has a dedicated autoguider port to connect an autoguiding camera directly to the mount to correct for any residual tracking errors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConditions for imaging are best when celestial objects are at their highest point in the sky with the darkest background, called the meridian. But some German equatorial mounts have trouble tracking near the meridian because they need to perform a “meridian flip,” readjusting their position to avoid the tube striking the mount. CGEM II does not suffer from this problem, imaging through the meridian with ease and not requiring a meridian flip until the object is a full 20° past the meridian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NexStar+ also has dozens of other functions to control every aspect of the mount’s behavior. These include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple ways to align the mount to the night sky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable slew rates up to 5°\/second\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNorthern or Southern hemisphere compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable autoguiding rates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHibernate mode so the mount can be powered down without loss of alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContinual firmware development, with new features added regularly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the autoguider port, the CGEM II also has other ports to enhance and expand the capabilities of the mount. The hand controller has a USB 2.0 port for those who wish to control the mount with an external computer and optional third-party software. There is an AUX port on the mount that can support optional accessories such as StarSense AutoAlign.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen imaging, cable management can be a problem. The camera has a cable, the mount’s power source has a cable, and additional cables can come from a computer connection and augtoguider. To minimize cable management issues and prevent unwanted snags, all cabling for the mount is housed internally. This also eliminates the need to connect or disconnect an external Dec. motor cable when the mount is set up or broken down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTransporting the entire system to a dark site is not a problem either. The optical tube, mount head, tripod, counterweight bar, and counterweight all disassemble, with no tools required, into separate manageable pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn summary, the CGEM II and RASA 8 work well together to attain stunning imaging results with minimal hassle. It’s the perfect kit for those who want to take the next step into deep-sky astroimaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table-open\" id=\"product-specs-list\" style=\"box-sizing: inherit;

With a wedge, you can take advantage of the All Star Polar Alignment procedure, which has you polar aligned in just minutes. You can also train your mount to be even more accurate with Permanently Programmable Periodic Error Correction. Finally, your CPC tracks smoothly through the meridian without doing a meridian flip, enabling you to capture objects in the best part of the night sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table-open\" id=\"product-specs-list\" style=\"box-sizing: inherit;

It is equipped with Celestron’s patented StarBright® XLT optical coatings, which visibly increase contrast and light transmission for brighter deep space images and shorter exposure times. With StarBright XLT, you’ll be able to discern subtle details while viewing the Moon and planets as well as faint galaxies and nebulae. The tube offers a focal ratio of f\/10 with the added versatility of Fastar (see below). You can also pair it with the f\/6.3 focal reducer for even more astroimaging options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFastar Technology\u003c\/h4\u003e\nIn 1997, CCDs were making a name for themselves in the astrophotography world, quickly supplanting traditional film photography thanks to their speed and convenience. This was the year that Celestron joined forces with the Santa Barbara Instruments Group (SBIG) to produce Fastar, a revolutionary add-on to Celestron’s hugely popular Schmidt-Cassegrain (SCT) optical system. With Fastar, the SCT’s secondary mirror can be removed and replaced with a field-flattening lens assembly (sold separately by third party manufacturers) so that a CCD camera can be used in the front of the telescope at the f\/2 focus of the instrument’s primary mirror. The potential of the Fastar system is staggering: exposures are 25 times shorter than if the camera was placed at the instrument’s native f\/10 focus. Imagers can capture galaxies and nebulae with exposures of just 30 seconds.\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStarBright XLT coatings\u003c\/h4\u003e\nStarBright XLT is Celestron’s revolutionary optical coating system. It consistently outperforms all other coatings in the commercial telescope market. There are three major components that make up our StarBright XLT high-transmission optical system design:\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnique enhanced multi-layer mirror coatings made from precise layers of aluminum, SiO2 (quartz), TiO2 (titanium dioxide), and SiO2 (silicon dioxide). Reflectivity is fairly flat across the spectrum, optimizing it for both imaging and visual observing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-layer anti-reflective coatings made from precise layers of MgF2 (magnesium fluoride) and HfO2 (hafnium dioxide). Hafnium—a rare element that costs nearly $2,000 per kilogram—gives us a wider band pass than the titanium used in competing coatings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-transmission water white glass is used instead of soda lime glass for the corrector lens. Water white glass transmits about 90.5% of light without anti-reflective coatings; that’s 3.5% better than uncoated soda lime glass. When water white glass is used in conjunction with StarBright XLT’s anti-reflective coatings, the average transmission reaches an astonishing 97.4.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\nThese three components make StarBright XLT one of the finest coatings available.\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eComputerized Mount Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProven NexStar computer control technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40,000 object database with over 100 user-definable objects and expanded information on over 200 objects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom database lists of all the most famous deep-sky objects by name and catalog number;

Designed for today's astro imager, Photron™ truss tube RC telescopes deliver a sharp clear image from one edge to the other. The truss tube models are designed t carry on our long standing reputation for creating and manufacturing solid, stable, accurate tracking mounts, in a high quality RC astrograph telescope.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eiOptron® Photron™ truss tube RC telescopes feature low thermal expansion quartz primary and secondary mirrors with highly reflective dielectric coatings maximizing the light getting to your eyepiece or imagine device. The RC optical design delivers coma, spherical and chromatic aberration free results, perfect for color and monochrome imaging. A fixed position primary mirror eliminates image shift that occurs when focusing from other telescope designs. With 1\/12th wave or better primary mirror our RC scopes delver images and views that are out of this world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach Photron truss tube instrument comes equipped with a dual-speed linear bearing Crayford focuser that can facilitate our optional ASCOM compliant electronic focus control. Three focuser extension rings are provided for a “flex-free” solid extension as a means to take up any unneeded back focus. Its backbone, made up of strong, light, carbon fiber truss supports hold the optics firmly in place while keeping weight to a minimum. It's open air design results in rapid cooling, reducing the \"wait time\" before use. Photron™ by iOptron®, RC truss tube telescopes are sure to meet or exceed even the most discriminating imager or observers expectations.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComa free, chromatic aberration-free, spherical aberration-free optics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12\" (304mm) optical aperture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2432mm focal length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ef\/8 focal ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFixed primary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow thermal expansion quartz mirrors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\" Dual-speed Crayford focuser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional iOptron Electronic Focuser (#8451)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"font-size: 13px;

Designed for today's astro imager, Photron™ truss tube RC telescopes deliver a sharp clear image from one edge to the other. The truss tube models are designed t carry on our long standing reputation for creating and manufacturing solid, stable, accurate tracking mounts, in a high quality RC astrograph telescope.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eiOptron® Photron™ truss tube RC telescopes feature low thermal expansion quartz primary and secondary mirrors with highly reflective dielectric coatings maximizing the light getting to your eyepiece or imagine device. The RC optical design delivers coma, spherical and chromatic aberration free results, perfect for color and monochrome imaging. A fixed position primary mirror eliminates image shift that occurs when focusing from other telescope designs. With 1\/12th wave or better primary mirror our RC scopes delver images and views that are out of this world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach Photron truss tube instrument comes equipped with a dual-speed linear bearing Crayford focuser that can facilitate our optional ASCOM compliant electronic focus control. Three focuser extension rings are provided for a “flex-free” solid extension as a means to take up any unneeded back focus. Its backbone, made up of strong, light, carbon fiber truss supports hold the optics firmly in place while keeping weight to a minimum. It's open air design results in rapid cooling, reducing the \"wait time\" before use. Photron™ by iOptron®, RC truss tube telescopes are sure to meet or exceed even the most discriminating imager or observers

StarSense Explorer—the first Dobsonian that uses your smartphone to analyze the night sky and calculate its position in real-time. This large-aperture Celestron StarSense Explorer is ideal for serious beginners, thanks to the app's user-friendly interface and detailed tutorials. It's like having your own personal tour guide of the night sky. The large aperture will ensure that you won’t outgrow the telescope as you continue on in your astronomical adventures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDock, Launch, Explore\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLeave complicated star charts, imprecise planetarium apps, and computerized mounts behind. With StarSense Explorer, locating objects has never been easier, faster, or more accurate. Within minutes of setting up the telescope, you'll be navigating the sky with confidence. Simply place your phone in the unique StarSense dock and launch the StarSense Explorer app.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter aligning your phone to the telescope's optics (a quick and easy procedure), StarSense Explorer generates a list of celestial objects currently visible. Make your selection and arrows appear on-screen, guiding you as you move the telescope. When the object is ready to view in the eyepiece, the bullseye turns green. As you observe, listen to hundreds of audio descriptions and view detailed information about thousands of objects within the app’s robust database.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Quality Altazimuth Base\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn ultra-stable Dobsonian base provides a sturdy foundation for StarSense Explorer. It features large diameter altitude bearings with variable tensioning, Teflon azimuth bearings, and braces on the side panels for extra stability (unlike most 8” Dobsonian bases). The altitude bearings provide a smooth up-and-down motion while the integrated altitude \"brake\" system allows you to adjust the tension along the altitude axis for smoothest motion even with slight imbalances. The panning knob on the telescope tube provides an ergonomic grip so you can precisely point the telescope without introducing heat from your hands into the optical system. As celestial objects appear to drift across the night sky, you'll be able to easily follow them with minor adjustments to the telescope’s position.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDazzling Views with High-Quality Optics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith a large 8\" Newtonian reflector optical tube, this telescope has enough light-gathering ability to bring out impressive detail in celestial objects while remaining remarkably portable. You can expect sharp, bright views of Jupiter's four Galilean moons, its cloud bands and Great Red Spot, the rings of Saturn, the gaseous glow of the Orion Nebula, dust lanes in the Lagoon Nebula, and our neighbor galaxy, Andromeda. Compared to the StarSense Explorer DX 130 AZ, the 8\" Dobsonian has 240+% more light gathering area, providing better views of faint objects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll mirror surfaces are coated with our XLT optical coatings to visibly increase contrast and light throughput for brighter views. With XLT, you'll be able to discern subtle details while viewing the Moon and planets, as well as faint galaxies and nebulae. The mirrors are made of low-expansion optical glass, which helps ensure the best images under changing environmental conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis telescope also comes with a high-quality 2” Crayford focuser. The Crayford design provides precise and smooth movements without focus shifting. It also includes a 2” to 1.25” adapter and a 2” extension tube, so you can use virtually any 1.25” or 2” telescope eyepiece with your StarSense Explorer Dobsonian.

This large-aperture Celestron StarSense Explorer is ideal for serious beginners, thanks to the app's user-friendly interface and detailed tutorials. It's like having your own personal tour guide of the night sky.

With StarSense Explorer, locating objects has never been easier, faster, or more accurate. Within minutes of setting up the telescope, you'll be navigating the sky with confidence. Simply place your phone in the unique StarSense dock and launch the StarSense Explorer app.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter aligning your phone to the telescope's optics (a quick and easy procedure), StarSense Explorer generates a list of celestial objects currently visible. Make your selection and arrows appear on-screen, guiding you as you move the telescope. When the object is ready to view in the eyepiece, the bullseye turns green. As you observe, listen to hundreds of audio descriptions and view detailed information about thousands of objects within the app’s robust database.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Quality Altazimuth Base\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn ultra-stable Dobsonian base provides a sturdy foundation for StarSense Explorer. It features large diameter altitude bearings with variable tensioning, Teflon azimuth bearings, and braces on the side panels for extra stability (unlike most 10” Dobsonian bases). The altitude bearings provide a smooth up-and-down motion while the integrated altitude \"brake\" system allows you to adjust the tension along the altitude axis for smoothest motion even with slight imbalances. The panning knob on the telescope tube provides an ergonomic grip so you can precisely point the telescope without introducing heat from your hands into the optical system. As celestial objects appear to drift across the night sky, you'll be able to easily follow them with minor adjustments to the telescope’s position.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDazzling Views with High-Quality Optics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith a large 10\" Newtonian reflector optical tube, this telescope has enough light-gathering ability to bring out impressive detail in celestial objects while remaining remarkably portable. You can expect sharp, bright views of Jupiter's four Galilean moons, its cloud bands and Great Red Spot, the rings of Saturn, the gaseous glow of the Orion Nebula, dust lanes in the Lagoon Nebula, and our neighbor galaxy, Andromeda. Compared to the StarSense Explorer DX 130 AZ, the 10\" Dobsonian has 380+% more light gathering area, providing better views of faint objects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll mirror surfaces are coated with our XLT optical coatings to visibly increase contrast and light throughput for brighter views. With XLT, you'll be able to discern subtle details while viewing the Moon and planets, as well as faint galaxies and nebulae. The mirrors are made of low-expansion optical glass, which helps ensure the best images under changing environmental conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis telescope also comes with a high-quality 2” Crayford focuser. The Crayford design provides precise and smooth movements without focus shifting. It also includes a 2” to 1.25” adapter and a 2” extension tube, so you can use virtually any 1.25” or 2” telescope eyepiece with your StarSense Explorer Dobsonian. The focuser also features a thumbscrew so you can lock in the sharpest focus.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect for the City or Dark Sky Sites\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEven if you live in a light-polluted city location, the Celestron StarSense Explorer 10” Dobsonian is advanced enough to easily pick out Jupiter, Saturn, open star clusters like the Pleiades, double stars like Alberio, the Orion Nebula, Andromeda Galaxy, and more of the best and brightest celestial objects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut if you can take the telescope to an even slightly darker location, more objects will become visible. With this 10\" Dobsonian and relatively dark skies, hundreds of fascinating objects are well within your reach.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTransporting your StarSense Explorer Dobsonian is easy thanks to the ergonomic carry handles located at the balance point of the tube and base.

From design to manufacture, our goal with the Corrected Dall-Kirkham (CDK) 20″ telescope was centered around performance and ease of use. The CDK20 is an incredible breakthrough in telescope technology and produces no off-axis coma and no off-axis astigmatism. Additionally, the CDK20 provides a perfectly flat field so your astrophotographs will have stunning clarity from corner to corner of the image without field curvature degrading the photos. Offering the simplicity of single-mirror collimation, the stray light control of advanced baffles, structural performance created through finite element analysis (FEA), and decades of telescope design experience, the CDK20 is an exceptional diffraction-limited telescope. CDK20 users can experience pinpoint stars edge-to-edge and a 45 x 45 arcminute field of view when using large 16803 size camera sensors. When equipment fades into the background and simply performs, the astrophotography experience becomes even more fun and rewarding!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page_section block_features layout_vert\" id=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCDK20's Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row justify-content-center\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"block-feature col-sm-12\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCarbon Fiber Truss Design\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-3 image\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg data-ll-status=\"loaded\" class=\"lazyloaded\" alt=\"Icon\" src=\"https:\/\/planewave.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/CF-truss-295x200.jpg\" width=\"207\" height=\"140\" style=\"float: left;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-9 col_content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMinimizes thermal expansion which causes focus shift as temperature changes during an imaging session.

The mass it takes to make a rigid alt\/az mount is substantially less, leading to cost savings. Unlike German Equatorial mounts, there are no meridian flips to deal with, and no  large protruding counterweights to create a dangerous hazard in a public observatory.

From design to manufacture, our goal with the DeltaRho 350 was centered around creating a game changing wide field telescope. The DeltaRho 350 is a Cassegrain optical design which means the imaging train is secured at the back of the telescope and does not block the light path compared to prime focus designs, which severely limit users ability to operate with filterwheels, or large cameras.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe DeltaRho 350 is an incredible breakthrough in telescope technology and ease of use. Operating at f\/3 and 1050 mm focal length, the DeltaRho is a wide field telescope that is sure to revolutionize your astrophotography!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdditionally, the DeltaRho 350 provides a perfectly flat field so your astrophotographs will have stunning clarity from corner to corner of the image without field curvature degrading the photos. Offering the simplicity of single-mirror collimation, the stray light control of advanced baffles, structural performance created through finite element analysis (FEA), and decades of telescope design experience, the DeltaRho 350 is an exceptional diffraction-limited telescope. DeltaRho 350 users can experience pinpoint stars edge-to-edge and a 170 x 170 arcminute field of view when using large 16803\/4040 size camera sensors. This field of view is nearly 3 times as large as our CDK14! When equipment fades into the background and simply performs, the astrophotography experience becomes even more fun and rewarding!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough years of dreaming of the perfect telescope for wide-field imaging, our pursuit of innovation has finally been honored with PlaneWave’s revolutionary Delta Rho 350 f\/3 telescope. The Delta Rho 350 is designed for unsurpassed wide-field imaging and ease of use in the field. Since the primary mirror is fixed in place, collimation is quickly achieved by adjusting the tip and tilt of the secondary mirror. With the Delta Rho 350, your astrophotography experience will be second to none! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrected Cassegrain focus optical design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAperture – 350 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFocal length – 1050 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFocal Ratio – f\/3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e60mm Image Circle \u0026gt; 3 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFixed Primary Mirror\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollimation performed via 3 tip\/tilt screws at the secondary mirror\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackfocus of 5.651” (143.535 mm) from mounting surface (without focuser and rotator).

In its Alt\/Az configuration, it is considerably more compact than its equatorial counterpart, allowing a larger telescope to fit in a smaller enclosure. Unlike traditional German Equatorial mounts, there are no meridian flips to deal with, and no large protruding counterweights to create a dangerous hazard in a public observatory. Alt\/Az is more intuitive to use and no polar alignment is needed. Besides, it is the way the pros do it! For added flexibility, the L-Series mounts can be installed in either Alt\/Az or equatorial mode with the optional wedge accessory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eL-350 Mount Features:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoad capacity of 100 lbs (45 kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect-drive motors on each axis for smooth, fast, and virtually silent movement of the telescope\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlew speeds up to 50 degrees per second\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-resolution encoders on each axis for precise positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero backlash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero periodic error\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePointXP mount modeling software\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnclosed electronics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThrough the mount cabling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; color: #555555; padding: 0px; font-weight: bold; font-size: 1.5em; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eMount System\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"box-sizing: inherit; border-collapse: separate; background-color: #ffffff; width: 1078px; border: 1px solid #dddddd; border-radius: 3px; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\" cellpadding=\"1\" border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"box-sizing: inherit; background: #eeeeee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"box-sizing: inherit; padding: 2px 5px;\" width=\"40%\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"box-sizing: inherit; padding: 2px 5px;\"\u003eAlt-Azimuth \/ Equatorial Direct Drive Mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"box-sizing: inherit; background: #fcfcfc;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"box-sizing: inherit; padding: 2px 5px;\" width=\"40%\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"box-sizing: inherit; padding: 2px 5px;\"\u003e110 lbs (50 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"box-sizing: inherit; background: #eeeeee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"box-sizing: inherit; padding: 2px 5px;\" width=\"40%\"\u003eMax.

In its Alt\/Az configuration, it is considerably more compact than its equatorial counterpart, allowing a larger telescope to fit in a smaller enclosure. Unlike traditional German Equatorial mounts, there are no meridian flips to deal with, and no large protruding counterweights to create a dangerous hazard in a public observatory. Alt\/Az is more intuitive to use and no polar alignment is needed. Besides, it is the way the pros do it! For added flexibility, the L-Series mounts can be installed in either Alt\/Az or equatorial mode with the optional wedge accessory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eL-500 Mount Features:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoad capacity of 200 lbs (90 kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect-drive motors on each axis for smooth, fast, and virtually silent movement of the telescope\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlew speeds up to 50 degrees per second\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-resolution encoders on each axis for precise positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero backlash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero periodic error\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePointXP mount modeling software\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnclosed electronics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThrough the mount cabling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"box-sizing: inherit; border-collapse: separate; background-color: #ffffff; width: 1078px; border: 1px solid #dddddd; border-radius: 3px; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\" width=\"780\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"box-sizing: inherit; background: #eeeeee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"box-sizing: inherit; padding: 2px 5px;\" width=\"208\" valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; color: inherit; padding: 0px; font-weight: bold; font-size: 1.5em; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eDirect-drive motors and encoders\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"box-sizing: inherit; padding: 2px 5px;\" width=\"374\" valign=\"top\"\u003eDirect-drive motors and on-axis encoders eliminate the need for gears, thereby eliminating backlash and periodic error.

In its Alt\/Az configuration, it is considerably more compact than its equatorial counterpart, allowing a larger telescope to fit in a smaller enclosure. Unlike traditional German Equatorial mounts, there are no meridian flips to deal with, and no large protruding counterweights to create a dangerous hazard in a public observatory. Alt\/Az is more intuitive to use and no polar alignment is needed. Besides, it is the way the pros do it! For added flexibility, the L-Series mounts can be installed in either Alt\/Az or equatorial mode with the optional wedge accessory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eL-600 Mount Features:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoad capacity of 300 lbs (135 kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect-drive motors on each axis for smooth, fast, and virtually silent movement of the telescope\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlew speeds up to 50 degrees per second\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-resolution encoders on each axis for precise positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero backlash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero periodic error\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePointXP mount modeling software\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnclosed electronics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThrough the mount cabling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"box-sizing: inherit; border-collapse: separate; background-color: #ffffff; width: 1078px; border: 1px solid #dddddd; border-radius: 3px; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\" width=\"780\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"box-sizing: inherit; background: #eeeeee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"box-sizing: inherit; padding: 2px 5px;\" width=\"208\" valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; color: inherit; padding: 0px; font-weight: bold; font-size: 1.5em;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; color: inherit; padding: 0px; font-weight: bold; font-size: 1.5em; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eDirect-drive motors and encoders\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"box-sizing: inherit; padding: 2px 5px;\" width=\"374\" valign=\"top\"\u003eDirect-drive motors and on-axis encoders eliminate the need for gears, thereby eliminating backlash and periodic error.

The CDK12.5 has a dual carbon-fiber truss design, with 3 cooling fans ejecting air from the back of the telescope, and 4 fans blowing across the boundary layer of the mirror’s surface. The CDK12.5 covers a 52 mm field of view without any field curvature, off-axis coma, or astigmatism.

The mass it takes to make a rigid alt\/az mount is substantially less, leading to cost savings. Unlike German Equatorial mounts, there are no meridian flips to deal with, and no large protruding counterweights to create a dangerous hazard in a public observatory. Alt\/Az is more intuitive to use and no polar alignment is needed.

Make your selection and arrows appear on-screen, guiding you as you move the telescope. When the object is ready to view in the eyepiece, the bullseye turns green. As you observe, listen to hundreds of audio descriptions and view detailed information about thousands of objects within the app’s robust database.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Quality Altazimuth Base\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn ultra-stable Dobsonian base provides a sturdy foundation for StarSense Explorer. It features large diameter altitude bearings with variable tensioning, Teflon azimuth bearings, and braces on the side panels for extra stability (unlike many 12” Dobsonian bases). The altitude bearings provide a smooth up-and-down motion while the integrated altitude \"brake\" system allows you to adjust the tension along the altitude axis for smoothest motion even with slight imbalances. The panning knob on the telescope tube provides an ergonomic grip so you can precisely point the telescope without introducing heat from your hands into the optical system. As celestial objects appear to drift across the night sky, you'll be able to easily follow them with minor adjustments to the telescope’s position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDazzling Views with High-Quality Optics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a large 12\" Newtonian reflector optical tube, this telescope has enough light-gathering ability to bring out impressive detail in celestial objects. You can expect sharp, bright views of Jupiter's four Galilean moons, its cloud bands and Great Red Spot, the rings of Saturn, the gaseous glow of the Orion Nebula, dust lanes in the Lagoon Nebula, and our neighbor galaxy, Andromeda. Compared to the other StarSense Explorer Dobsonian telescopes, the 12” Dobsonian has 2.25\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003emore light gathering ability than the 8” and 2.25x more light gathering ability than the 10”, providing better views of faint objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll mirror surfaces are coated with our XLT optical coatings to visibly increase contrast and light throughput for brighter views. With XLT, you'll be able to discern subtle details while viewing the Moon and planets, as well as faint galaxies and nebulae. The mirrors are made of low-expansion optical glass, which helps ensure the best images under changing environmental conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis telescope also comes with a high-quality 2” Crayford focuser. The Crayford design provides precise and smooth movements without focus shifting. It also includes a 2” to 1.25” adapter and a 2” extension tube, so you can use virtually any 1.25” or 2” telescope eyepiece with your StarSense Explorer Dobsonian. The focuser also features a thumbscrew so you can lock in the sharpest focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect for the City or Dark Sky Sites\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven if you live in a light-polluted city location, the Celestron StarSense Explorer 12” Dobsonian is advanced enough to easily pick out Jupiter, Saturn, open star clusters like the Pleiades, double stars like Alberio, the Orion Nebula, Andromeda Galaxy, and more of the best and brightest celestial objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut if you can take the telescope to an even slightly darker location, more objects will become visible. With this 12\" Dobsonian and relatively dark skies, hundreds of fascinating objects are well within your reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTransporting your StarSense Explorer Dobsonian is easy thanks to the ergonomic carry handles located at the balance point of the tube and base.
