Celestron Origin Intelligent Home Observatory

The Celestron Origin Intelligent Home Observatory redefines what’s possible for amateur astronomy. Combining the ultra-fast Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph (RASA) optical system with fully automated tracking, live image stacking, and AI-powered image enhancement, Origin lets you explore the universe like never before—without complex setup or prior imaging experience.

At its core lies a patented 6” f/2.2 RASA optical design, providing a wide field of view with incredible light-gathering power. Paired with a Sony IMX178 color CMOS sensor and onboard Raspberry Pi 4 computer, Origin captures high-resolution astrophotos with stunning clarity in real time. You can view, stack, enhance, and save your images directly from the Celestron Origin app on your smartphone or tablet.

The all-in-one system features an integrated battery, dew prevention, automated focusing, filter drawer, and live streaming capabilities. Whether you’re a seasoned imager or just starting your astronomy journey, Origin makes astrophotography intuitive, portable, and immersive—turning your backyard into a personal observatory.
