The Celestron Advanced C8-NGT is a serious Newtonian reflector aimed squarely at the advanced amateur astronomer who wants a ton of light gathering power in a computer-controlled package that you'll not outgrow.

- Maximum slew speed of 4° per second
- GoTo Hand controller is choked with 40,000 objects in its database as well as the capacity for 400 user-defined objects
- RS-232 Port allows control of the telescope via your personal computer
- Optional CN16 GPS Accessory allows for automatic alignment with pinpoint accuracy
- Just 2.2" of secondary mirror obstruction (8% of area)
