14 Inch Telescopes offer exceptional resolution for their size. They can resolve double stars at . 33 arcseconds and can be magnified up to 712 times the human eye. 14" Optical tubes also make exceptional light gatherers by allowing an observer to see 16.5 magnitude stars!
What is the largest Celestron telescope?
CGE Pro 1400 Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope
What can I see with a 16 inch telescope?
Details on planets and deep sky objects will be visible even for inexperienced observers. Thrill to the sight of the elusive Horsehead or North American Nebula, and see faint structure in galaxies, planetary nebulae, and more with this powerful 16-inch Dobsonian telescopeDobsonian telescopeA Dobsonian telescope is an altazimuth-mounted Newtonian telescope design popularized by John Dobson in 1965 and credited with vastly increasing the size of telescopes available to amateur astronomers. The design is optimized for observing faint, deep-sky objects such as nebulae and galaxies.https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Dobsonian_telescopeDobsonian telescope - Wikipedia!
What is a good magnification for a telescope to see planets?
Experienced planetary observers use 20x to 30x per inch of aperture to see the most planetary detail. Double-star observers go higher, up to 50x per inch (which corresponds to a ½-mm exit pupil). Beyond this, telescope magnification power and eye limitations degrade the view.
What size telescope do I need to see Saturn's rings?
25x
What is an optical tube assembly?
Optical tube assemblies (OTAs) are simply the tube of the telescope where the optics are housed. OTAs are a great option if you already own a telescope mount and want a new field of view.
Can I take pictures with my Celestron Telescope?
These handy adapters makes anyone an instant astroimager! Simply connect your smartphone to your eyepiece, adjust the directional knobs, and you're ready to capture images and video for instant sharing. The Smartphone Adapters can be used with all Celestron telescopes and their included eyepieces.Feb 1, 2019
What can I see with a 14 inch Dobsonian?
Sky-Watcher 14” Flextube SynScan GoTo Collapsible Dobsonian The large 14” mirror delves deep into the universe, showing you thousands of objects from Saturn, Jupiter, & Mars to galaxies, nebulae and star clusters millions of light years away.
What can you see with an 11 inch telescope?
11-inch Telescopes offer exceptional resolution for their size. They can resolve double stars at . 42 arcseconds and can be magnified up to 304 times the human eye. 11" Optical tubes also make exceptional light gatherers by allowing an observer to see 16 magnitude stars!
What can you see with a 14 Dobsonian telescope?
The 14” telescope optical tube collapses down to just a little over 38”, allowing you to transport the scope in a majority of vehicles. The large 14” mirror delves deep into the universe, showing you thousands of objects from Saturn, Jupiter, & Mars to galaxies, nebulae and star clusters millions of light years away.

What is the light gathering power of a 14 inch telescope?
The light gathering power increases as the square of this diameter. Therefore, a telescope with twice the diameter will have four times the light gathering power. For example, CSUN's 14 inch telescope would have (14*4)2 = 3136 times more light gathering power than the human eye!
How do you use the camera on the Celestron telescope?

How do you use a camera telescope?
A DSLR camera can be attached to your telescope using a T-Ring that locks onto the camera body like a lens, and an adapter that threads onto the T-Ring. The prime-focus adapter is inserted into the focus tube of the telescope just like an eyepiece.
What is good telescope magnification?
As a rule of thumb, your telescope should have at least 2.8 inches (70 mm) aperture — and preferably more. For most purposes, a telescope's maximum useful magnification is 50 times its aperture in inches (or twice its aperture in millimeters) . So you'd need a 12-inch-wide scope to get a decent image at 600×.
What is HyperStar telescope?
HyperStar is the easiest way to capture deep-sky astrophotos. The patented HyperStar unit is a multiple-lens corrector which replaces the secondary mirror on a Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope and allows extremely fast CCD imaging. HyperStar provides the easiest and fastest means of imaging deep-sky celestial objects!
What is a good magnification for a telescope?
For most purposes, a telescope's maximum useful magnification is 50 times its aperture in inches (or twice its aperture in millimeters) . So you'd need a 12-inch-wide scope to get a decent image at 600×. And even then, you'd need to wait for a night when the observing conditions are perfect.
What does a HyperStar lens do?
How Does the HyperStar Lens Work? The HyperStar lens replaces the secondary mirror at the front of a Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope (SCT). The HyperStar lens converts the telescope to an f/1.8 optical system (f/2.0 for a 14" scope). This allows incredibly fast images, up to 33 times faster than at f/10!
