Celestron 8-Inch Schmidt-Cassegrain Optical Tube Assembly Bundle
Celestron 8-Inch Schmidt-Cassegrain Optical Tube AssemblyDid you like stargazing as a kid. Are you into cosmology and astrophysics. If so, then this telescope is made for you. With an 8-inch optical tube and a CGX mount, this combination is perfect for all your astronomy needs. The Aluminum optical tube of the OTA contains Celestrons premium StarBright XLT coatings. The OTA includes a 2032 mm focal length (f/10), a 25mm eyepiece (81x), and a 6x30 finderscope. The visual back can be used with 1.25-inch accessories like the star diagonal which provides for a more comfortable viewing position and it also includes the dovetail rail compatible with the CGE mount.Celestron CGX Equatorial Mount and TripodThe Celestron CGX Equatorial Mount holds a 55 lb load capacity. It contains worm wheels that are constructed with the spring-loaded brass worm wheels and stainless steel worm gear that reduce friction and provide optimum gear mesh for heavier loads. The dual-fit dovetail saddle accepts both the wide, Losmandy/CGE style and the narrower Vixen/CG-5 style dovetails.MotorImproved motors provide more torque and tracking under heavy loads and the heavy-duty belt-drive system minimizes backlash while providing smooth motor operation at full capacity. The mount has internal cabling for worry-free remote operation. Power input and lower accessory ports remain stationary while the mount slews to avoid snags.Internal SensorsThere are two internal optical sensors for simple and safe remote operation. The Home sensor allows the mount to always start in the index position regardless of orientation before a power reset and the Limit sensor automatically shuts off slewing or tracking before reaching the hard stop fail-safe. The internal hard stops for both axes prevent cable tension and tripod strike.
