Celestron EdgeHD 1400 and the ParamountMX

This gallery is for displaying images produced using the 14" Celestron EdgeHD telescope mounted on a ParamountMX, from Software Bisque. All images were taken from Rusty Mountain Observatory in Gold Canyon, Arizona. (See https://pbase.com/wjshaheen/rusty_mountain_observatory )

Some configurations, such as for deep sky objects, will include use of the Celestron .7x focal reducer designed specifically for their EdgeHD telescopes and yielding a focal length of 2700mm at f/7.6.

(Click on any of the thumbnails below to see the full image, in various sizes. Recommended size is Large, as the original may take awhile to download.)
