Description
Celestron Origin stands at the forefront of a new era in amateur astronomy, blending stargazing and astrophotography into a single, user-friendly experience. This intelligent, all-in-one home observatory takes the complexity out of traditional telescopes, transforming your backyard into a gateway to the stars. Packed with cutting-edge technology, Celestron Origin captures the beauty of celestial objects and brings them to life on your phone or tablet. With the patented Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph (RASA) at its core, Celestron Origin boasts an ultra-fast f/2.2 system and a wide field of view. To take full advantage of the RASA optics, Celestron placed a Sony IMX178 color CMOS sensor on the front cell. The Origin has built-in AI algorithms that automatically stack and process every frame in real time resulting in breathtaking display of celestial objects, rich with color and detail. Setup is effortless. Thanks to StarSense technology, the fully automated initialization procedure is complete in under two minutes. Origin focuses itself, scans the night sky, autonomously aligns itself by matching star patterns overhead to its internal database. The Origin app for iOS and Android offers an intuitive planetarium interface that simplifies navigation through the night sky. Once you’ve chosen a target, Origin slews to it and centers it precisely in the field of view. On the app, switch to the camera view and press Start Imaging to begin capturing 10-second exposures. Origin supports multiple users, allowing streaming, smart TV connectivity, and the instant sharing of your images. If that wasn’t enough, Origin’s mount contains a built-in LiFePO4 battery and integrated WiFi so you can use it anywhere—even without an external WiFi connection. Additionally, Origin features a smart dew prevention system, a filter drawer for 1.25” and 2” filters, and more. Portable and versatile, Celestron Origin redefines the astronomical experience.
