Description
GPS-assisted dual-fork observation defines the Celestron SC 203/2032 CPC 800 GoTo Telescope, an 8-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain with a 2032 mm focal length and listed f/10 optical ratio. Its CPC dual-fork computerized alt-azimuth mount includes an integrated 16-channel GPS receiver, NexStar+ hand controller, StarBright XLT optical tube, 40 mm eyepiece, 9×50 finder, star diagonal, stainless steel tripod, accessory tray, and 12V car power cable.
The aluminum optical tube uses internal primary-mirror focusing with pre-loaded support bearings, while the CPC mount supplies automated object location and tracking after GPS-assisted alignment. The 203.2 mm aperture and 2032 mm focal length support the supplied lunar, planetary, star-cluster, and deep-sky applications, while the dual-fork format provides a self-contained telescope system without requiring a separate equatorial mount.
