Celestron Advanced Series C9.25-SGT Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope
The C9.25-SGT Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope is a member of Celestron's Advanced telescope series. Celestron Advanced scopes combine state-of-the-art technology easy-to-use features and ready-to-use components to produce instruments of unparalleled quality and utility. The C9.25-SGT comes mounted on the CG-5 GT computerized equatorial mount that allows access to features like automatic star alignment capability and GoTo slewing to more than 40000 objects. Equipped with high-speed motors and a hand controller the CG-5 GT allows you to slew your telescope remotely to desired objects quickly and accurately. No matter whether you're a beginner an intermediate viewer or an advanced amateur astronomer this precision instrument will satisfy your needs both visually and photographically.Celestron CG-5 EQ Mount This new German equatorial mount has precision worm gears on both axes for extremely smooth tracking motion. The new heavy-duty tripod with larger and more substantial legs offer excellent damping characteristics for more stable views. In fact the CG-5 is the most stable mount in its class. The CG-5 also has a convenient latitude scale for easier alignment and an optional polar finder scope for the ultimate in precision alignments.StarBright XLT CoatingsCelestron's XLT coating process uses state-of-the-art thin-film vacuum-deposition technology. To ensure consistent optical coatings of the highest quality the process is tightly monitored and controlled by highly trained technicians. Prior to coating each optical element is thoroughly cleaned and inspected to ensure proper adhesion of the films during the coating process. Materials used in our reflective and anti-reflective coatings including aluminum hafnium oxide titanium dioxide silicon dioxide and magnesium fluoride are the purest available exceeding 99.99 percent. The result is image clarity so stunning it must be seen to be believed.
