StarBright XLT coatings. This telescope is at home as a superb visual

astrophotographer''s tool. Turn the Celestron CPC elescope towards
planets and see amazing detail on the surface of Jupiter; Cassini''s
Division in the rings of Saturn, and resolve details on the surface of
Mars. Even the distant Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are within your reach.
Hundreds of deep space objects are also visible.
Portable enough to set up in your backyard or take with you to your
favorite dark sky location. The Celestron CPC telescopes, , feature meticulously
matched and hand-figured optical systems.
In addition, all CPC models
are diffraction limited and come standard with StarBright XLT High
Performance Optical Coatings. With the introduction of the CPC Series,
Celestron has "gone back to the drawing board" and re-designed,
re-engineered, and re-invented a telescope family that provides
superior quality, unsurpassed ease of use, and incomparable value.
The Celestron CPC telescopes use an internal GPS receiver
that automatically downloads the date and time from orbiting satellites
and pinpoints its exact location on Earth. This eliminates the need for
you to manually enter the date, time, longitude, and latitude. Once the
internal GPS has established the Celestron CPC''s position, aligning the
telescope is as easy as 1-2-3! Simply use the CPC hand control to
manually point (slew) the telescope to three bright celestial objects.
You do not need to know the names of the stars you may even pick the
moon or bright planets! Celestron''s NexStar(R) software technology will
model the night sky to determine the position of every star, planet and
celestial object above the horizon. Once your Celestron CPC telescope
is aligned, the remote hand control allows direct access to each of the
celestial catalogs in its user-friendly database.
The Celestron CPC database contains over 40,000 celestial objects
including Messier objects and the Caldwell Catalog, as well as NGC
Galaxies, nebulae and planets. User-definable filter limits make
navigating through this expansive database quicker and easier. Filter
Limits let you filter out objects that are outside of your local
horizon (ie, if trees or mountains were in the way). The Identify
feature tells you what you''re looking at with your Celestron CPC, but
it can also be a very fun way to tour around the sky. Just point the
telescope up somewhere and ask it to identify Messier objects (for
instance) and it will show you the 5 nearest Messier objects to your
position and let you GOTO them. You can keep doing this for different
parts of the sky or for different object types -- it is a lot of fun.
There is also a "Solar Sys Align" feature that lets you align your CPC
telescope on the sun or moon for daytime observing -- it is easy to use
this feature to see planets or bright stars in the day.
