http://www.scopecraft.com/The SC-2438 telescope is a complete computer controlled research grade telescope. The mount is a horseshoe equatorial design with all roller drive on both axes. The optical design is based on a
24 inch f/3.1 full thickness fine annealed Pyrex parabolic primary mirror. A CCD camera is mounted at prime focus of the primary. A corrector mounted in front of the camera handles correction of the astigmatism and coma of the primary. The telescope is driven by a DriveScope drive system. The truss system uses carbon fiber tube members that have a zero coefficient of thermal expansion for constant focus over a wide temperature range.
Field of View:
•Paracorr® corrector: 33 arc minutes (f/3.5)
•Custom corrector:
Over 1 degree (f/3.5)
Complete telescope system includes: Telescope, Primary mirror, DriveScope and WinScope software
