A superior choice for astronomy enthusiasts, the C6-A, 6" Schmidt-Cassegrain Optical Tube Assembly is designed to seamlessly fit CG-5 Mounts. This high-quality, durable optical tube assembly is a part of Celestron's innovative range of telescopes, renowned for their advanced technology and sturdy construction. The C6-A features the multicoated Starbright XLT Coatings, a unique feature that sets it apart from ordinary 8" optical tube assemblies. These highly reflective coatings are meticulously applied on the mirrors, while anti-reflective coatings are employed on the correcting lens. This strategic use of coatings significantly enhances light transmission, allowing for a brighter and clearer image of celestial objects. Celestron's optical systems are designed with internal baffling to ensure the highest contrast levels, providing you with an unparalleled viewing experience. This advanced design element contributes to the C6-A's ability to bring the faintest objects your scope can resolve into greater detail. Regardless of their size or configuration, all Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain optical assemblies utilize the same superior optics, maintaining the company's commitment to consistently high performance and customer satisfaction. The StarBright XLT coatings dramatically decrease the total percentage of light loss incurred by the scope's system of lenses & mirrors by a measure of 43%. This reduction in light loss can have a particularly dramatic effect on the visibility of deep space objects. The C6-A, 6" Schmidt-Cassegrain Optical Tube Assembly is not just an addition to your astronomy equipment, but a gateway to exploring the wonders of the night sky with enhanced clarity and detail.

C-11 review

This is a great scope! The additional brightness and magnification compared to my 5? SCT is dramatic.

Great upgrade from 5? SCT

Gracias

Very nice. Make sure you research the mount and tripod before buying.

Works great

I've wanted a Celestron OTA for quite some time.  Having started with smaller scopes (a 5" Maksutov) and an 8" Dobsonian, the next step was to acquire the Celestron.  The wait was worth t - this is a great scope.

Celestron 8" OTA

This telescope replaced my heavier 12" SCT and is more portable when used with my German Equatorial Mount.
The Owl nebula  Messier 97 was easily seen with this telescope and a UHC filter from my city location. Detail on the planet Saturn was excellent.
