Celestron Dobsonian 8"
Celestron
is proud to introduce our Star Hopper series of Dobsonian telescopes
available in 6", 8", 10" and 12" apertures. Dobsonian telescopes are
recognized within the astronomy hobby as an excellent value for the aperture
size, and our Star Hopper line is as rich in features as it is in value.
Our Dobsonian configuration is a Newtonian optical tube mounted on an
altazimuth mount. The optical system features a large primary mirror at the
bottom of the tube which collects light and concentrates it onto a small
secondary mirror, which reflects the light out the side of the tube and into
the eyepiece. Best of all, Star Hopper Dobsonians are easy to observe with --
the user navigates through the night sky by simply moving the tube up or
down, and left or right, by hand.
All
Star Hoppers use optical quality BK-7 glass, this is the same high-quality
glass used in most binocular prisms and refractor telescope lenses. All
Star Hoppers use a roller track bearing on the azimuth surface providing
dozens of support points for smooth swivel motion. They also use a variable
tension clutch system for proper balance and control in both altitude and
azimuth. The 10" & 12" Star Hoppers have cooling fans built-in to the rear
cell to decrease cooling times. The 8", 10" & 12" models come standard with
2" focuser and 1.25" adapter. The 10" & 12" models come standard with a 32mm
2" eyepiece and use a 9-point flotation mirror cell for equal support of the
primary mirror.
