Description
The Celestron C6-NGT Newtonian telescope uses diffraction-limited parabolic primary mirrors for razor sharp star images across a wide field of view. The optics of these heavyduty telescopes are manufactured to Celestron's uncompromising standards with star images that are classic textbook Airy disks.
Mounted on the Advanced GT Series computerized mount, this telescope has some high performance software and hardware features. The telescope has a 40,000+ object database with 100 user-definable objects and expanded information on over 200 objects.
Using the RS-232 communication port on the hand control, you can control the telescope via a personal computer and the new flash upgradeable hand controls allow you to update your telescope's operating software via the internet.
