Celestron bashing thread ?
im sure the reasoning behind NASA selecting the 925OTA is due to the fact that the 925 is built in the exact same way as its larger and heavier siblings such as the c11 and c14, even the same parabolic angle of the main and secondary mirror are built and assembled the exact same way, the 925 is also half way between 8 and 11. The 925 also has 33% more light gathering ability than the 8 inch, and only a few extra pounds heavier.
Bash the company all you like (i often bash them on their Facebook page). But bashing a really nice SCT?
