Celestron Astro Fi 6 Inch SCT Telescope - Harrison Telescopes

With this 6” Schmidt-Cassegrain and relatively dark skies, the Andromeda Galaxy, Hercules Open Star Cluster, and so many more are easily within your reach.What's more, the telescope comes equipped with the SkyPortal app, which provides a seamless experience in locating and identifying over 100,000 celestial objects. Telescopic magnification depends on the telescope's focal length (the distance between the objective lens/primary mirror and the point of focus of the light it collects) and the focal length of the eyepiece used. means very short exposures, and a long back focus means compatibility with a variety of camera gear.

Celestron 6-Inch Advanced VX Refractor Telescope - Black

Regardless of a telescope's aperture or physical size, the most important thing to be aware of when purchasing any telescope is its optical quality. For example, the most basic type of reflector is the Newtonian design, which uses a main mirror and a small secondary mirror, which diverts the light at right angles to the eyepiece through the top end of the telescope. These three components of our StarBright XLT coatings result in one of the finest coatings available. This effect is reduced or banished with the combined efforts of a spherical mirror and a meniscus lens, the latter of which is 'weakly negative'. Jupiter's moons, Saturn's rings and other deep-sky objects are breathtakingly vivid through the Celestron NexStar 8SE's 203.Download Celestron’s Starry Night Software and learn about the night sky, celestial objects, and how to plan your next observing session. Nevertheless, it proves to be a worthwhile investment for those serious about skywatching or astrophotography.

mm) reflector would cost you less than a refractor with the same aperture, allowing you to get much more value for your money. The NexStar 6SE's battery can drain quickly, so we recommend powering the setup with an external power source. The Astro Fi 6 inch is the largest computerized alt-azimuth Schmidt Cassegrain telescope in the range, perfect for terrestrial and celestial viewing on the go. The Celestron Omni XLT 102 is aimed at intermediate-level skywatchers, particularly those who have mastered setting circles and know how to use the right ascension and declination coordinates on the supplied high-quality CG-4 German equatorial mount.

When a single lens doesn't focus all the colors emitted from a target object at the same point, bright objects such as the moon, Venus or Jupiter usually have a colored halo around them. A fantastic scope for any experience level, it's incredibly easy to use yet powerful enough for deep space exploration and even astrophotography. The Schmidt-Cassegrain optical design is ideal for imagers and visual observers looking for a telescope that is much more portable than the reflector or refractor. The Celestron Advanced VX 8 EdgeHD's optical performance is impressive, with crisp and clear views with no optical distortion or false color. A Newtonian reflector on a simple undriven alt-azimuth mount (known as a 'Dobsonian') offers the best value in terms of aperture.
