The Celestron Advanced C6-NGT is a serious Newtonian reflector aimed squarely at the advanced amateur astronomer who wants light gathering power in a computer-controlled package that you'll not outgrow. This is a scope large enough to show much of the skies best, but small enough to travel from time to time in the trunk of a car. Silky-smooth and quiet operation.

This product would be better rated if I ever got the thing to work, the customer service and instruction manual were more "user friendly".The assembly instructions did not match the product/product pieces, taking multiple e-mails just to get it assembled. Then, once assembled, multiple problems between the hand controller and the equitorial mount -- which tech service kept dismissing and closing out our e-mail. After many E-mails back and forth, I got burnt out and returned it.BHphoto is NOT to blame!
