Product Details
- Ready to see the moon and more? Stargazing is fun but why don't you take it up to the next level and become an expert in astronomy. The Celestron CGX 8 inch EdgeHD SCT GoTo Telescope allows you to have your very own backyard observatory. Enjoy the stars.EdgeHD 8 inch Optical Tube AssemblyCelestron’s revolutionary aplanatic EdgeHD optics reduce off-axis star coma while providing an astrograph-quality flat focal plane all the way to the edge of the field of view. The result is a focal plane more than three times flatter than a standard Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope and dramatically flatter than other competing coma-free designs, guaranteeing sharp stars across today’s largest CCD sensors.CGX Equatorial Mount and TripodFeaturesThe computerized mount holds a 55 lb load capacity. It contains worm wheels that are constructed with spring-loaded brass worm wheel 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. The stainless steel counterweight shaft is used to accept 11 lbs. counterweights.The two integrated handles on the mount allow for easy pickup and transport. The ergonomically designed dovetail clamping knobs help keep the OTA on securely. When polar aligning the mount, the latitude adjuster allows for smooth and easy adjustment under full loads and there is an optional add-on polar axis finderscope for better results. The adjustable EQ head position optimizes the center of gravity over the tripod and fully utilizes the increased 3°-65° latitude range making the mount sturdier with a quicker dampening time. The mount allows for +20° of additional tracking past the meridian on either side.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.New SoftwareThe mount includes control software developed in conjunction with PlaneWave Instruments for professional level control operation and imaging. Software includes the multi-point mount modeling for extremely precise pointing accuracy and many more additional features for remote astroimaging.ElectronicsThe mount comes with two Aux accessory ports and an autoguider port. NexStar+ hand control with USB port tells you much about the night sky with a press of a button. The USB 2.0 port is used to connect directly to the PC with PWI Software. The mount is PPEC ready. There is a threaded 12VDC power input barrel connector for added comfort and an Internal Real Time Clock which saves time and site information. The mount supports WiFi and wireless operation accessories which are sold separately.
