DescriptionWhere stargazing and advanced technology meet, you'll find the Celestron Advanced VX 6" Newtonian Telescope. This high-quality, durable telescope sets a new benchmark in mid-level astronomy equipment, offering features typically found on Celestron's top-tier German equatorial mounts, but at a more accessible price point. The Advanced VX 6" Newtonian Telescope is an ideal choice for both beginners and experienced astronomers. Its Newtonian optical design is perfect for visual observing, offering the largest aperture for the price, thus ensuring brighter and clearer images of celestial objects. The parabolic primary mirror works to minimize spherical aberration, producing sharper images, particularly near the edge of the field of view.The Advanced VX mount is designed for superior performance, even with smaller telescopes. It utilizes Celestron's most advanced technologies, including All-Star Polar Alignment, Celestron PWI telescope control software, SkyAlign, and permanently programmable periodic error correction (PPEC). Whether you're an experienced imager seeking a portable mount for dark sky sites, or a novice eager to delve into the world of astronomy, the Advanced VX is designed to grow with your needs. Its computerized German equatorial mount is the smallest in Celestron's range, but don't let its size fool you. The GoTo capability automatically tracks objects as they traverse the night sky, making your observation sessions effortless and enjoyable.The Advanced VX mount comes equipped with ports for a hand control, an autoguider, and 2 AUX ports for optional accessories. The NexStar+ hand control provides instant access to all the functions your mount offers. With automatic slewing and intuitive menu descriptions, mastering this mount is a breeze, regardless of your astronomy experience level.The Advanced VX also boasts a robust tripod, featuring 2" diameter steel legs for an extra-wide stance, ensuring improved stability. With a payload capacity of 30 lbs, it offers a sturdy platform for any of the Advanced VX optical tubes, even when paired with optional accessories.As of early 2019, Advanced VX mounts now include a new dual saddle plate that accommodates both CG-5 and CGE-style dovetail, making it compatible with virtually any optical tube within its weight limit.The Celestron PWI Telescope Control Software, co-developed with the engineers at PlaneWave Instruments, is included with all current Celestron computerized telescopes. This innovative software suite offers a graphical planetarium interface with PointXP advanced mount modelling, allowing for the most accurate pointing and tracking possible. Your purchase also includes a free download of Celestron's Starry Night Special Edition Software. This powerful software by Simulation Curriculum provides detailed information about celestial objects and helps you plan your next observing or imaging session.
