Schmidt Cassegrain Telescopes

With the choice of a Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope (also known as SCT) you are in excellent company. It has been one of the most popular optical designs in the world for decades, and it's not hard to see why! An SCT offers a remarkably large aperture and a long focal length in a tube that is many times shorter and lighter than a comparable reflector or refractor. Additionally, this is the most flexible system on the market: with the right prism, you can use it just as easily for daytime terrestrial observations as for nighttime astronomy. Are you looking for the ultimate, compact all-rounder that scans the sky for you automatically? Then discover our iconic Celestron NexStar SE and Evolution systems and experience for yourself why the SCT is the king of versatility!
