Welcome to the Celestron world of amateur astronomy! Celestron has been
providing amateur astronomers with the tools to explore the universe for more
than a quarter of a century. The Celestron G-8 Newtonian continues in this proud
tradition. With a mirror diameter of 8", your G-8N has almost 800 times the light
gathering power of the unaided human eye. It can show you literally thousands of
deep-sky objects. Yet your G-8N is compact enough to take to the mountains or
desert or wherever you observe.
This telescope is made of the highest quality materials to ensure durability and
stability. All this adds up to a telescope that gives you a lifetime of pleasure with a
minimal amount of maintenance. And, your Celestron G-8N is versatile. It grows
as your interest grows. All you need to do is take the time to familiarize yourself
with your G-8N and its operation.
