A high quality, economical 9x50 finderscope with fully coated lenses and a 5.8° field of view.  It comes with a mounting bracket for C8 type telescopes.

Finderscopes are secondary scopes, used to help locate objects in the main telescope.  Those finderscopes with larger objective lens diameters are able to locate fainter stars, and of course weigh more, too.

A star diagonal, the term commonly associated with 90° mirror diagonals such as this, lets you view objects that are at a 90° angle from the direction the telescope is pointing.  This allows quite comfortable viewing when the telescope is at or near the zenith(directly overhead), and is fairly comfy when observing terrestrial imagery as well-albeit a bit unorthodoxed at first.

Celestron's erect image diagonals are Amici prism designs, meaning that images are upright and laterally correct.  This design, however, instead renders images which are laterally reversed but are brighter than erect image diagonals.  The #93519 diagonal is used with 2.00" focusers and can be used with either 2.00" or 1.25" eyepieces, thanks to the included adapter which reduces the eyepiece barrel diameter to accept the smaller size.  Works both with Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes or refractors.

This adpapter allows you to link your telescope drive directly to the cigarette lighter receptacle of your car, for a quick and easy 12v DC power source in one step.
Cord is 25ft in length.

Celestron's been at the cutting edge of computerized telescope technology for more than twenty years, and they've now taken this further with the NexRemote™ telescope control software.  It allows the user to control their Celestron computerized telescope from their personal computer, even remotely!  This software was developed for Celestron's telescopes using the NexStar control system, including the NexStar "i" Series, Advanced Series, NexStar GPS Series and CGE Series units.

Note! CD-Rom ONLY; this does NOT include a NexRemote remote control.

The RS-232 serial cable connects into the Nexstar hand control or on some models, into the port on the drive base, and the other end connects into a computer.One end of the cable is a phone type jack, (RS-232) and the other end is a standard serial computer input.

With CD ROM software this cable will enable your computer laptop or desktop to interface and control the telescope by pointing and clicking on sky maps shown on the computer monitor. With certain telescopes the cable allows downloading additional data from the Celestron website into the database of the Nexstar computer hand control.
