Celestron C10 N Advanced Series Telescope 11047 is the largest Newtonian Telescope in its class with 178% more light gathering than the 6 inch model and almost twice the resolving power. The optics of the C10-N Telescopes are manufactured to Celestron's uncompromising standards. The C -10N Celestron Telesope uses diffraction-limited parabolic primary mirrors for razor sharp star images across a wide field of view.

Celestron C 10 N Advanced Series Telescope 11047 is mounted on the very rigid CG-5 German Equatorial mount. A counterweight, latitude scale, setting circles, and slow motion controls on both axes are standard, so you have a fully loaded telescope right from the start.

CG-5 Mount - Precision engineered for stability.
Celestron new German Equatorial mount has precision worm gears on both axes for extremely smooth stability. The key element that makes this system the most stable in its class is the NEW heavy-duty tripod with larger and more substantial legs that offer excellent damping characteristics for more stable views. The CG5 also has a convenient latitude scale for easier alignment and an optional polar finder scope for the ultimate in precision alignments.
