The telescope also includes a 25 mm eyepiece, 6x30 finderscope, and star diagonal to provide a more focused, accurate, comfortable view of the objects that are present high in the sky. This makes the telescope a dependable choice for long-exposure photography.

    CGX Tripod and Mount

    The CGX tripod and computerised equatorial mount are backbones of the Celestron CGX 925 Telescope. Sturdy and rigid, the equatorial mount can withstand up to 25 kg load and features a smooth, heavy-duty belt-drive system that minimises backlash and improves tracking and slewing under heavy loads. This mount also features a worm gear and worm wheel for friction reduction and optimal gear mesh. The CGX tripod features height index marks on the legs for accurate levelling and two handles for hassle-free transport/pickup. It also includes a polar alignment adjustment system that helps in identifying the accurate location of the celestial objects.

    Software Compatibility

    Professional astronomers always search for ways to locate difficult and deep sky objects through their telescopes. This telescope is compatible with various software to make their job easy. Once the telescope is connected to a PC, the CPWI telescope control software enables the astronomers to search the celestial target in its database. It also features a sky viewer star chart that provides a planetarium surface for easy navigation. The Celestron starry night special edition software is a premium choice for astronomers as it gives them more knowledge and power, while also enabling them to observe the entire sky effortlessly. The SkyPortal app is another software that helps in aligning the telescope with the night sky for the identification of various celestial objects.
