Cassegrain Telescopes

The design of Cassegrain Telescopes (a catadioptric telescope) was first proposed by astronomer & lens designer James Baker in 1940. Cassegrain Telescopes combine many of the best features of the refractor and reflector telescopes. The Schmidt–Cassegrain design is popular with consumer telescope manufacturers such as Celestron & Meade because it combines easy to manufacture spherical optical surfaces to create an astronomy telescope with the long focal length of a refracting telescope but with the lower cost per aperture of a reflecting telescope. Cassegrain Telescopes are generally compact in design and offer a portability that some other types of astronomy telescope just can't offer. Popular models include the SkyWatcher Skymax, Celestron AstroFi & Celestron NexStar ranges.
