Telescopes & Astronomy

• Instantly transform your normal Celestron 8” Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes(8" SCT) and Celestron 8" EdgeHD telescopes into a yellow-light solar telescope (for a complete list of 8" scopes, look in description section)
• ISO compliant solar safe film protects your eyes when viewing the sun, unlike some other filters on the market
• Solar film produced in the USA by American Paper Optics, one of the suppliers recommended by NASA for safe solar viewing
• Designed from the telescope’s lens cap for a snug fit, each filter includes two safety Velcro straps and four self-adhesive Velcro pads for safely securing your solar filter in place

• The Celestron Universal Barlow & T-Adapter is three accessories in one!
• 2X Barlow:  Use during visual observing to double the magnification of every 1.25” eyepiece you own
• Prime Focus Photography: Use the T-Adapter portion of this accessory to transform your telescope into a giant telephoto lens
• Tele-Extended Photography:  Use the T-Adapter with Barlow to get double the magnification of prime focus mode 
• T-threads accept camera brand specific T-Ring (sold separately)

• Celestron’s top-performing altazimuth telescope system, the CPC Deluxe HD is a favorite among experienced amateur astronomers and the preferred telescope of Stephen Hawking
• 8-inch EdgeHD optical tube provides stunning views and sharp astroimages free of visual defects
• NexStar+ hand control and internal GPS guides users through the simple SkyAlign setup and features a 40,000+ object database
• Sturdy dual fork arm mount with upgraded gears and motors anchors the telescope for superior tracking and pointing accuracy
• Ready for serious astroimaging, CPC Deluxe HD features All-Star Polar Alignment and Permanently Programmable Periodic Error Correction when equipped with the HD Pro Wedge

NOTE: The recommended solar filter for this scope for solar observing is the Astrozap Glass Solar Filter (Product No. 124451) 

• The EdgeHD .7x Focal Reducer Lens makes your EdgeHD 1400 one full F-Stop faster than f/11, reducing your exposure time by half to capture the same brightness of object
• 5-element lens design
• Maintains similar flat-field performance as native EdgeHD optical design
• Increases field of view by 43% to better capture wide field images
• Threads directly onto the 3.25" threads of the EdgeHD which reduces mechanical vignetting and allows for use with larger (full frame) sensors and Off-Axis Guiders
• Maintains the identical back focus when used at f/11 and provides generous back focus to accommodate additional accessories and wide variety of cameras
• Allows use of existing EdgeHD T-Adapters with or without the Reducer Lens

• Your NexStar carrying case is designed to safely carry your NexStar SE 4/5/6 and Evolution 6 telescope as well as any Celestron 8" SCT/EdgeHD optical tube
• Case is EVA molded to protect your telescope with a hard yet flexible shell
• Case also comes with a convenient storage zipper pocket that holds all your telescope's standard accessories with room to expand
• Inside the case includes two dense foam spacers and a built-in compression strap designed to customize the case for each telescope model
• Model includes a durable Nylon handle for easy transportation

• Carrying case for NexStar SE, Evolution and EdgeHD telescopes with an 8”, 9.25” or 11” optical tube
• Space for carrying accessories
• Durable, EVA molded construction
• Thick foam padding along all walls
• Roller wheels for easy transportation

• 6” (150 mm) f/5 optical design gives excellent wide field views
• Parabolic primary mirror minimizes spherical aberration to produce a better image
• Integer gear ratios and permanently programmable Periodic Error Correction eliminates recurring track errors from the worm gear
• New motors offer improved tracking performance & provide more power to overcome load imbalances
• Updated industrial design offers more rigidity, less flexure and improved aesthetics
• New design allows viewing or imaging across the meridian without interference from the motors housings
• Improved latitude range, can be used between 7 – 77° latitude
• Improved electronics contain increased memory for future expansion
• NexStar+ hand control offers multiple language programming (English, French, Italian, German, Spanish)

• Celestron’s top-performing altazimuth telescope system, the CPC Deluxe HD is a favorite among experienced amateur astronomers and the preferred telescope of Stephen Hawking
• 11-inch EdgeHD optical tube provides stunning views and sharp astroimages free of visual defects
• NexStar+ hand control and internal GPS guides users through the simple SkyAlign setup and features a 40,000+ object database
• Sturdy dual fork arm mount with upgraded gears and motors anchors the telescope for superior tracking and pointing accuracy
• Ready for serious astroimaging, CPC Deluxe HD features All-Star Polar Alignment and Permanently Programmable Periodic Error Correction when equipped with the HD Pro Wedge

• Polar align your Celestron CGEM, Advanced VX, or CG-5 equatorial mount with this Celestron Polar Finderscope
• Inserts into the polar finder port at the back of the mount
• The easily identifiable star patterns of the Big Dipper, Cassiopeia and Octans are etched into the reticle, as well as Polaris and the North Celestial Pole, to help with alignment in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere
• Eyepiece has focus adjustments for reticle clarity
