CELESTRON CPC 800 telescope package with equatorial wedge HD PRO

Telescope Celestron CPC 800 11073-XLT

tHE TELESCOPES OF THE FUTURE ARE HERE!

Advanced technology and eye-catching design at an affordable price. The Celestron CPC series of telescopes, with revolutionary SkyAlign alignment technology, redefines everything the amateur astronomer has been waiting for - simple and fast alignment, GPS, excellent optical quality, ease of assembly, ergonomic design, improved computerization and, most importantly, affordability.

The telescope's internal GPS module Celestron automatically downloads the date and time from orbiting satellites and determines the exact location on Earth. This eliminates the need to manually enter the date, time, and longitude and latitude coordinates.

Then simply activate the revolutionary SkyAlign alignment technology to align the telescope Celestron. Simply locate and manually point the telescope to three bright celestial objects. You won't need to know their names - you can even choose the Moon or bright planets.

The advanced NexStar program at Celestron will model the sky to determine the position of each star, planet and celestial object above the horizon. Once the instrument is aligned, the computerized control unit will have direct access to the database catalogs.

With the CPC series, Celestron has "gone back to the drawing board" and redesigned, reorganized and reinvented a family of telescopes Celestron that offers superior quality, ease of operation, and unparalleled value. All CPC series models are supplied with NexRemote computer telescope control software and StarBright XLT high-transmission optical coating.

EQUATORIAL WEDGE IS ALSO INCLUDED:

CELESTRON's HD PRO WEDGE equatorial mount is designed to support CELESTRON's Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes in double-arm fork format (CPC and CPC DELUXE HD series) up to 11" diameter.

The HD PRO WEDGE equatorial mount is a stable and robust platform perfect for astrophotography and ensures that vibrations will be kept to a minimum. Its wide latitude range from 0 to 90° makes this wedge-shaped equatorial mount functional even at the equator.

Features include the following elements: altitude and azimuth control adjustment by means of oversized knobs to facilitate alignment with the pole star, a telescope control knob holder to decide whether to store the knob on the equatorial mount or on the telescope fork, a clamping plate to facilitate mounting the telescope on the wedge by simply rotating it, and a long 14mm thick screw for easy latitude adjustment (equivalent to the polar axis) that gives strength and stability to the assembly, while minimizing vibrations to facilitate the rotational movement of a heavy telescope, such as the CPC1100 or CPC1100 DELUXE HD.
