Before John Dobson introduced the Dobson telescope, the vast majority of amateur telescopes consisted of small lens telescopes with primitive mechanics - just enough to barely make out the polar caps of Mars or the rings of Saturn. Larger telescopes, such as Schmidt-Cassegrains, were reserved for a much more expensive and specialised market, however this all changed with the introduction of the Dobsonian Telescope. The Dobsonian design combines simple but effective mechanics with the largest possible aperture, which has given the Dobsonian telescope a unique triumph worldwide. Nowhere else do you get so much light gathering ability for your money as with a good Dobsonian Telescope.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt 305mm (12\") Aperture things start to get very serious in terms of what you can see through the eyepiece. The Moon and Planets are simply awe inspiring and even fainter objects like Galaxies and nebula start to show lots of real detail and structure - Particularly if you are viewing from a dark sky location. A telescope with a mirror diameter of 305mm collects more than 1800 times as much light than the naked eye.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe easy disassembly of this telescope allows for problem-free transport, even in relatively small cars - the assembly then is quick and easy without the need for tools.

Simply point the telescope at three stars and it will be ready for use in no time. This gives you an exceptionally affordable telescope with a range of features that previous generations of amateur astronomers could only have dreamed of (Note: you only need to see the three \"guide stars\", you don't need to know them).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can even remotely control this telescope with your iPhone, iPad or Windows PC via WiFi using the optional SkyQ-Link WiFi adapter and the SkyQ app, which is available separately from the Apple AppStore - simply use the star map on the screen. So if you are looking for a telescope with the most modern control electronics, then choose the Celestron NexStar SE. With the optional StarSense module, the telescope even takes over the initialization in the starry sky itself - all you have to do is set up the telescope, switch it on and wait three minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe NexStar 8SE - the lightweight all-rounder for deep sky and planets:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe NexStar 8SE is the middle to higher range Schmidt-Cassegrain in the NexStar SE series with an 8\" aperture. It is the ideal compromise between portability and performance - with this aperture, globular clusters are very well resolved and brighter galaxies and nebulae start to show more detail under dark skies. Near cities, nebula filters can be used to help block out the scattered light from cities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe telescope has the 1.25\" focuser connection that is common in astronomy. This means that all common astronomical 1.25\" eyepieces (plug size: 31.7mm) can be used which covers all useful magnifications and enables quick switching between different magnifications. Adapters are also available to use 2\" eyepieces and accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSLR cameras and numerous other accessories can also be connected using a separately available T-adapter.

This azimuthal single-arm mount is optimized to be ready for use quickly and easy to transport. Unlike the classic parallactic mount, you do not have to spend time aligning the telescope to the north, setting the polar height or taking counterweights with you. The mount is simply set up horizontally and after alignment (in which you simply set any three bright stars), the computer automatically ensures that the telescope moves to the desired objects and keeps them in the eyepiece: the automatic tracking automatically compensates for the rotation of the earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis makes the SE telescopes ideal for anyone who wants to observe the starry sky themselves: very portable, quickly ready for use and with all the necessary comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe telescope is attached to the mount with a standard prism rail with quick coupling, so it can be easily removed. The mount can also provide stable support for other telescopes up to approx. 5.5kg. However, this is not necessary for transport: the complete mount including telescope is very handy and fits, for example, in the separately available, padded transport case. It is simply attached to the stable steel tripod with three easy-to-grip screws; a centering pin helps when placing it on the tripod.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NexStar 6\/8SE mount also offers everything you need for photography: lunar photography with an SLR camera or planetary photography with a video camera are also possible without any problems in azimuthal operation with the correct camera adapter. Long exposures are also possible using the optional Heavy Duty Deluxe polar wedge: The mount is aligned parallel to the earth's axis, like a classic parallactic (\"astronomical\") mount. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA software installed in the hand controller helps you to easily align the mount with high precision even without a polar finder. This not only prevents the image field from rotating when you photograph for example a lunar eclipse over a long period of time but also allows deep sky imaging.

After this SkyAlign, the mount knows what the sky above it looks like and controls each additional object at the touch of a button.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the optional Celestron SkySync GPS module, you save yourself the trouble of entering the date, time and observation location, making setup even easier. This data is automatically transferred to the telescope via the GPS satellites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SE telescopes are also compatible with the StarSense module. Behind this is a small camera that is mounted on the telescope and uses to orient the telescope fully automatically in the sky - without GPS. With StarSense, all you have to do is set up the telescope, switch it on and wait about three minutes. Since StarSense is compatible with all modern, computer-controlled Celestron telescopes, you can continue to use it even if you ever buy a larger telescope - StarSense also works with observatory-class telescopes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis means that a NexStar SE telescope can be updated at any time when there are technical innovations - this ensures that your telescope retains its value!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eControl via PC and iPhone:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLike all Celestron NexStar telescopes, the NexStar SE can also be controlled via PC.

The large, easy-to-grip screws mean that this can also be done with gloves. The sturdy steel tripod has a shelf for accessories and a holder for the hand control box. The SE mount can carry devices weighing up to approx. 5.5kg, depending on the design.

You can also track objects far beyond the meridian without having to immediately turn carry out a meridian flip. This means you can observe the most interesting part of the sky without interruption. The Advanced VX also has a much wider base than its predecessor, which further increases stability even with large loads. The improved motors have a higher torque and can better compensate for slight imbalances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince spring 2019, it has been delivered with the dual dovetail clamp , so that both telescopes with the small CG5 rail (EQ standard) and the large CGE rail (3\" standard) fit on the AVX - without additional adapters!

An optional polar finder scope and the software routine of the hand control box make it easier to align to the north.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Advanced VX is designed as an ideal platform for astrophotography with smaller telescopes. For telescopes up to approx. 13.6kg (depending on the lever), the sophisticated functions of this large parallactic mount is now also available. Thanks to PEC (Periodic Error Correction), the periodic worm error that occurs in all mounts with classic worm gears can be compensated, so that long-exposure shots are easily carried out. You can also track objects far beyond the meridian without having to immediately turn carry out a meridian flip. This means you can observe the most interesting part of the sky without interruption. The Advanced VX also has a much wider base than its predecessor, which further increases stability even with large loads. The improved motors have a higher torque and can better compensate for slight imbalances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince spring 2019, it has been delivered with the dual dovetail clamp , so that both telescopes with the small CG5 rail (EQ standard) and the large CGE rail (3\" standard) fit on the AVX - without additional adapters!

However, the rail must be at least 100mm long as the clamping points on the new AVX are 90mm apart. If a user wants to use the AVX with a telescope that has a Vixen (or CG-5) dovetail rail that is shorter than 100mm, the rail must be replaced with a longer dovetail rail however suitable rails are available separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new AVX mount is not compatible with Losmandy D format dovetail rails. The CGE and Losmandy D formats are similar but not identical. Losmandy rails are about a millimeter wider, while CGE plates are deeper and have more surface contact with the dovetail clamp.

Since its introduction in 2014, RASA technology has become the first choice for space surveillance and satellite tracking. Companies, researchers, and governments rely on RASA telescopes to do things like scan the skies for dangerous, tiny pieces of satellite debris that could destroy our vital communications satellites.

In short, it delivers unparalleled detail in photos while maintaining short exposure times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNext-Generation 678C Camera:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEquipped with Sony's latest Starvis-2 color CMOS technology, the Origin 678C offers higher resolution, improved sensitivity and a noticeable leap in image quality compared to the first generation of the Celestron Origin Smart Telescopes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNow everyone can become a real astrophotographer:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCelestron Origin, with its built-in AI algorithms, represents a paradigm shift in sophisticated astrophotography. As the telescope acquires data, these intelligent algorithms automatically stack and process each  image in real time. The result is a stunning display of celestial objects, in color and with a wealth of detail only seen in images taken by experienced astrophotographers. For the first time, astrophotography is accessible to enthusiasts of all experience levels, including those who have never used a telescope before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUsing the Celestron Origin Smart Telescope:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA universe in your hands: StarSense technology \u0026amp; the Origin app\u003cbr\u003eSetting up the Celestron Origin is a breeze thanks to the automated initialization process powered by StarSense technology. Place the Origin under a clear night sky, turn it on, and connect it to the app. Then you can decide whether to stay with your telescope or head indoors. In less than two minutes, the Origin focuses itself, scans the night sky, self-orients itself by comparing star patterns with its internal database, and notifies you that it's ready to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Celestron Origin app , developed in collaboration with Simulation Curriculum, the creators of SkySafari™, offers an intuitive planetarium interface that simplifies navigating the night sky. Use the planetarium view, point your device at the sky, and look around in \"Compass Mode,\" then simply tap on any object you want to see (the most beautiful ones are highlighted). Or try the \"Tonight's Best\" list, where Origin displays all the most impressive galaxies, nebulae, star clusters, and more—based on your exact location and time of observation. Never again will you need to consult a star atlas or plan ahead; Origin is ready to show you the universe, even if clear skies catch you off guard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce you select a target, the Origin precisely centers it in the field of view. Switch to the camera view and press \"Start Imaging\" to begin capturing 10-second exposures. It couldn't be easier! You'll see in real time how the summed photos reveal increasing detail. As the Origin works, it continuously tracks the sky and adjusts its built-in dew protection system and fans to the ambient conditions, ensuring the optics are optimally tempered for razor-sharp images.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA shared cosmic experience:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith Origin, no one has to wait their turn to look through an eyepiece.

Advanced features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs your interest in the hobby grows, you'll be able to take advantage of more advanced features and capabilities. For example, Origin has a built-in filter drawer that accepts standard 1.25\" and 2\" filters. This allows you to optionally install astronomical filters, which are especially useful when photographing nebulae in light-polluted environments, such as typical suburban gardens. For imaging broadband objects such as galaxies and star clusters, or objects under dark skies, remove the filter for more light transmission and brighter images. Experiment with different and interchangeable filters to achieve results you can't achieve with the fixed filters of other systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you'd like to try advanced image processing, that's also possible. Origin saves all your raw images for you.

The advantage of this SD refractor is its short length and low weight.

On moonless nights you can even observe the many galaxies, nebula and other deepspace objects under very dark skies\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FPL53 glass used in the telescope reproduces an extremely clear and sharp image thanks to an extraordinarily high elimination of residual chromatic aberration. The SD glass is designed in such a way that it brings all rays - violet, red, blue, yellow and green - very precisely together on the same plane. The special lens material therefore reduces chromatic aberration across all colours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new Vixen SD103SII no longer uses spacer discs, which leads to significantly better image quality, especially with bright stars. Photographic images do not show any spikes on the stars that would otherwise be caused by the spacer discs. In combination with the optional SD Reducer HD Kit or SD Flattener HD (not included), this refractor telescope enables illumination with a 44mm image circle for full-frame SLR cameras. The older ED81SII, ED103S, ED115S refractors were originally developed for visual observers and photographers with APS-C cameras. However, the new SD series is also optimised for use with full-frame cameras thanks to the use of new internal diaphragms. The large 60mm focuser also allows heavy cameras to be attached without tilting. Furthermore, the supplied folding mirror allows comfortable observation even in difficult observation positions and also offers a T2 thread for connecting a DSLR camera. The carrying handle attached to the tube clamps ensures a secure grip when transporting the telescope. The sturdy metal tripod enables the telescope and mount to be mounted without vibration, even in windy weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ultra-modern SX2WL mount is simply operated via a Wi-Fi module with your smartphone or tablet. By simply controlling the mount with your smartphone or tablet and using the free STAR BOOK Wireless app, you can easily use sky navigation functions such as automatic GoTo panning for many celestial objects. By eliminating the conventional LCD display (STAR BOOK TEN), the power consumption on the mount is reduced by up to 20%, thus enabling longer astronomical observation and astrophotography. When you touch the desired celestial object on the star chart, it is automatically pointed into the telescope's field of view and tracking begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNOTE: An existing STAR BOOK TEN or ONE controller can also be used on this mount without any problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEquipped with the same precision stepper motors as the top model, the AXD mount, the SX2WL brings a new standard of performance and precision to the Vixen mount family.\u003cbr\u003eWith a photographic load capacity of 12kg, the axis cross of the mount is just 7kg light, making it ideal for mobile observations. In addition, the motors mounted in the lower part of the mount also serve as a counterweight and the mount therefore requires fewer weights for balancing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails of the SX2 Mount:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrecision stepper motors and micro-step motion control system\u003cbr\u003eAt the heart of the SX2 are the precision stepper motors, which offer better performance and response than previous models.

Even brighter globular star clusters can be easily resolved into individual stars. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fast focal ratio of 1:4 makes this telescope perfect for photography. You can therefore get a great photo very quickly and don't have to choose endlessly long exposure times. You can optimise the image quality with the optionally available field flattner. This flattner (not included) optimises the image right into the corners of a full-frame DSLR camera. The large 60mm focuser also allows even heavy cameras to be attached without tilting. The sturdy metal tripod enables vibration-free mounting of the telescope and mount even in windy weather. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ultra-modern SX2WL mount is simply operated via a Wi-Fi module with your smartphone or tablet. By simply controlling the mount with your smartphone or tablet and using the free STAR BOOK Wireless app, you can easily use sky navigation functions such as automatic GoTo panning for many celestial objects. By eliminating the conventional LCD display (STAR BOOK TEN), the power consumption on the mount is reduced by up to 20%, thus enabling longer astronomical observation and astrophotography. When you touch the desired celestial object on the star chart, it is automatically pointed into the telescope's field of view and tracking begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNOTE: An existing STAR BOOK TEN or ONE controller can also be used on this mount without any problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEquipped with the same precision stepper motors as the top model, the AXD mount, the SX2WL brings a new standard of performance and precision to the Vixen mount family.\u003cbr\u003eWith a photographic load capacity of 12 kg, the axis cross of the mount is just 7 kg light, making it ideal for mobile observations.

The advantage of this SD refractor is its short length and low weight. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou will be amazed when you use it to observe the surface of the moon with its craters or Saturn with its complex ring system. On a good night, even the two bright cloud bands and many smaller details on Jupiter, such as the large red spot will also be visible on the planet. On moonless nights from dark sky locations you can also observe various deepspace galaxies, nebula and other objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FPL53 glass used in the telescope reproduces an extremely clear and sharp image thanks to an extraordinarily high elimination of residual colour errors. The SD glass is designed in such a way that it brings all rays - violet, red, blue, yellow and green - very precisely together on the same plane. The special lens material thus reduces chromatic aberration across all colours. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new Vixen SD81SII no longer uses spacer discs, which leads to significantly better image quality, especially with bright stars. Photographic images therefore no longer show spikes on the stars, which would otherwise be caused by the spacer discs. In combination with the optional SD Reducer HD Kit or SD Flattener HD (not included), this refractor telescope enables illumination with a 44mm image circle for full-frame SLR cameras. The older ED81SII, ED103S, ED115S refractors were originally developed for visual observers and photographers with APS-C cameras. However, the new SD series is also optimised for use with full-frame cameras thanks to the use of new internal diaphragms. The large 60mm focuser also allows heavy cameras to be attached without tilting. Furthermore, the supplied folding mirror allows comfortable observation even in unfavourable observation situations and also offers a T2 thread for connecting a DSLR camera. This allows you to observe in a degree view or at a 90° angle. The carrying handle attached to the tube clamps ensures a secure hold when transporting the telescope. The sturdy metal tripod enables the telescope and mount to be mounted without vibration, even in windy weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ultra-modern SX2WL mount is simply operated via a Wi-Fi module with your smartphone or tablet. By simply controlling the mount with your smartphone or tablet and using the free STAR BOOK Wireless app, you can easily use sky navigation functions such as automatic GoTo panning for many celestial objects. By eliminating the conventional LCD display (STAR BOOK TEN), the power consumption on the mount is reduced by up to 20%, thus enabling longer astronomical observation and astrophotography.\u003cbr\u003eWhen you touch the desired celestial object on the star chart, it is automatically pointed into the telescope's field of view and tracking begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNOTE: An existing STAR BOOK TEN or ONE controller can also be used on this mount without any problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEquipped with the same precision stepper motors as the top model, the AXD mount, the SX2WL brings a new standard of performance and precision to the Vixen mount family.\u003cbr\u003eWith a photographic load capacity of 12 kg, the axis cross of the mount is just 7 kg light, making it ideal for mobile observations. In addition, the motors mounted in the lower part of the mount also serve as a counterweight and the mount therefore requires fewer weights for balancing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails of the SX2 Mount:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrecision stepper motors and micro-step motion control system\u003cbr\u003eAt the heart of the SX2 are the precision stepper motors, which offer better performance and response than previous models.
