Details

More information
The Schmidt-Cassegrain Celostron Astro Fi 6 " Telescope is a 150mm aperture Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope with a fork-high-azimuth mount . The Schmidt-Cassegrain design allows for increased power at magnification, that's   ideal for planetary and deep sky observation in full detail. Up to here it could be a basic initiation telescope, but in it we found a novelty that has not been developed until now, the possibility of controlling the telescope from your mobile device through the wi-fi connection.
The expansion to 6 " offers the possibility of working with large format telescope openings, in a range of initiation to the Go-To system with Wi-Fi . This was previously only possible with the NexStar Evolution range, which is intended for a more advanced audience.

The SkyPortal application for Android and IOS will allow you to configure the control of your telescope, which already has an integrated Wi-Fi communication system. To start the observation you will only need three celestial points , no matter what they are, and he will automatically calculate your position, from here the same function of SkyAlign will take you on a tour of space. This telescope allows memorizing up to 120,000 celestial objects .
The multi-coated optics of this telescope follow the quality of Celestron, incorporating two eyepieces , 10 and 25mm (150 and 65X). The focal length is 1500mm and the focal ratio is 10 . Therefore, it is a suitable instrument for planetary and deep sky observation, a much brighter team than its serial partners. With it you can discover the planets in detail and also have a unique view of galaxies and nebulae. It incorporates a precise optical finder , Star Pointer model and a diagonal or 1.25 "diagonal prism
The kit comes complete with an Altazimuth fork mount , similar to that of the Celestron LCM series, and a very stable aluminum tripod . This mount is mainly intended for observation use, although it allows astrophotography to large celestial objects, such as the Moon and its surface.
