About Celestron:
Celestron, headquartered in Torrance, CA is a major manufacturer, designer and importer of quality optical products and instruments. The brand’s product range is both awe-inspiring and sheer quality including spotting scopes, binoculars, microscopes and telescopes (both computerized & non-computerized). The brand has received several awards and accolades for product innovation from Popular Science, Popular Mechanics, PC Magazine, Reader’s Digest, the Consumer Electronics Association and other technology magazines. Today, Celestron boasts a global market chain and all their products are marketed through a number of international distributors and speciality retail outlets.
History of Celestron:
Celeston was initially founded as Valor Electronics by Tom Johnson as an aerospace electronics company. In the quest for searching a suitable telescope for his two young sons, Valor made up his mind to construct a telescope by himself from scratch and thus the brand Celestron was born in 1960. Starting with the conventional 6-inch reflector, Celestron progressed considerably to produce Catadioptric telescopes, Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes (Celestron C8 & C5) and later the 11” and 14” telescope models that went on to gain immense popularity among both casual skywatchers and serious astronomers.

Optical tubes of Celestron:
Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain OTAs (Optical Tube Assemblies) are also available separately for use with the mount. Each OTA is designed in such a way so as to match the standards you can find on all Celestron’s high quality telescopes. With the optical surfaces coated with StarBright XLT coating, the tube assemblies are built with the similar dovetail mounting bar you can find on the Advanced & CGE Series and this means you can attach it to a wide range of telescope mounts.
Celestron Range of Optical Tubes (OTAs):
EdgeHD 8, EdgeHD 9.25, EdgeHD 11, EdgeHD 14, C6-A-XLT (CG-5), C8-A XLT (CGE), C8-A XLT (CG-5), C9 1/4-A XLT (CGE), C9 1/4-A XLT (CG-5), C11-A XLT (CGE), C11-A XLT (CG-5), C14-A XLT (CGE), C14-AF XLT (CGE)
Highlight features of Celestron Telescopes:
- Built with superior optical coatings & optics
- Mechanical components of the highest quality
- Use of lightweight material
- Meticulous quality assurance and internal testing
- Upgrade of the telescope’s OS via the internet in selected range of Celestron’s technology (Flash Upgradeable)
- Selected range of Celestron’s telescopes are GPS Compatible and few others have internal GPS receiver built into it, thus saving you time, besides giving the most accurate alignments
Terminology/Technology related to Celestron Telescopes:
StarBright XLT: StarBright XLT is Celestron’s high performance optical coating system that gives an even greater level of light transmission, i.e., the percentage of incoming light reaching the focal plane is more. The construction of the XLT System helps meet two important objectives: Develop an effective coating system which is optimized for visual observation & use and for Photographic/CCD imaging.
EdgeHD Optics: EdgeHD is essentially an aplanatic Schmidt telescope built to give you aberration-free images and observation across a wide photographic and visual field of view. This optical system not only reduces more than justoff-axis star comma (which affects not the centre of the image, but only affects the outer parts of the image).
|
What is a Comma? The comma leads to a condition such that the stars which are at the edge of the field have a comet-like shape with its narrow end pointing toward the centre of the field. |
EdgeHD optics offers you smaller (much concentrated) stars which produce brighter, crisper images and helps you observe with a bit fainter magnitude compared to other telescopes that are equally sized. Inferior edge quality will distribute starlight a lot more such that the star’s brightness seems to be the same like the background of the sky and this makes it barely discernible to your camera or your eye. Conversely, EdgeHD optics allows capturing even the faintest or dizziest of deep sky galaxies right to the edge of the full-frame camera chip.
All-Star Polar Alignment Technology: All-Star Technology helps you select any bright star that is mentioned in the Celestron NexStar hand control and guides you in precisely aligning the mount of the telescope with North Celestial pole, once you align the telescope with two bright stars. The Sync function of the telescope helps the mount accurately point and centre a bright star. Once you centre the mount, it would point the instrument exactly in the position that the star will be if the telescope mount were accurately polar aligned. When you simply adjust the mount’s azimuth controls and altitude to re-centre the star in the eyepiece’s centre, it means you are essentially moving the polar axis of the mount to the North Celestial Pole’s exact position.
SkyAlign Technology: SkyAlign Technology is an easy method to align any Celestron computerized telescope and you do not even have to know the names of the stars. You can also pick the moon and the bright planets with this system. The telescope is ideal for the beginner or the experienced user. You simply need to enter the date, time and your current location (Note that the GPS models can get this piece of information automatically) and then point the instrument at 3 bright stars of your choice. You neither have to point the telescope north or level the telescope’s optical tube like in the earlier alignment methods. The telescope’s initial position holds no significance here. And this means aligning the telescope is very easy and requires less time.
NexRemote Control Software: NextRemote Control lets you to control the Celestron computerized telescope from your PC. Everything you might have done with the instrument’s hand control could now be performed remotely from your laptop or PC. This software was developed for its high-end instruments that make use of NexStar control system such as the Advanced Series, CGE, NexStar GPS Series and the NexStar ‘i’ series. Features that are integrated into the software include Custom tour creation, Wireless operation plus compatible gamepad, speech support for hearing NextRemote say every bit of it out loud and you can also make use of your favourite planetarium software simultaneously with the NexRemote.
