Celestrons signature orange-tube telescope combines advanced features and excellent optics in one easy-to-use system, the NeXStar 5SE. Its the perfect choice for your first serious telescope, offering striking views at an economical price. In the 1970s, Celestrons Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes brought the hobby of astronomy to the masses and established Celestron as the worlds premier telescope maker. Our founder, Tom Johnson, invented Celestrons proprietary method of producing Schmidt corrector plates for superior views and maximum portability. Johnson believed in creating high-quality optical instruments at an affordable price, and inspired a generation of amateur astronomers. Four decades later, weve improved upon this design by adding cutting-edge features, while staying true to our founders intent. View the Universes Most Impressive Celestial Objects The 5SEs five-inch primary mirror packs enough light-gathering ability to observe the best that the solar system has to offer: Saturns rings, the cloud bands on Jupiter, and geographic features on the surface of the Moon. When it comes to deep sky objects, take your 5SE to a dark-sky site and youll see hundreds of pinpoint stars in the Hercules Globular Cluster, the spiral arms of the Whirlpool Galaxy, and more.

Tele Vue DeLite Series 9mm Eyepiece (1.25″) Review

- Conquerogue Leave a comment

Tele Vue DeLite Series 9mm Eyepiece (1.25

    This fits your .
  • Make sure this fits by entering your model number.

  • 9 mm focal length
  • 62 degree apparent field
  • 20 mm eye relief

The 9 mm DeLite is a premium eyepiece from TeleVue featuring a 62 degree apparent field and 20 mm of eye relief that is simply a delight to use. Named DeLite because that best describes the viewing experience, the name also recognizes designer Paul Dellechiaie. Just as Delos eyepieces were developed based on Tele Vue’s Ethos eyepiece design advancements, DeLite is the logical step toward a smaller, more economical and lightweight version of Delos. The 62 degree apparent field DeLite retains the pure optical quality of Delos along with 20mm eye-relief, unique sliding, locking eyeguard, and is compatible with the Dioptrx astigmatism corrector. While it is true that eyepiece designs have pushed new boundaries in terms of apparent field, the simple fact is that a 62 degree apparent field is more than adequate for most observing purposes, especially when used with go to telescopes that track their celestial targets. We think that the superior contrast and long eye relief offered by the DeLite outweigh the larger apparent field offered by some competing eyepieces.
