Sonnenfinsternis 2026

On the evening of August 12, 2026, an extraordinary celestial event is on the horizon: A total solar eclipse will pass over parts of Europe—though not over Germany.

Here in Germany, we will experience an impressive partial eclipse, which will nonetheless offer a rare and spectacular sight. Germany will be entirely within the Moon’s penumbra. As a result, the sun will not be completely, but clearly and visibly “nibbled away.

What do you need to safely observe the solar eclipse? You can find a list 👉 here!

Key Features:

F/3.2 Ultra-Fast Optics
Captures deep-sky objects with unparalleled efficiency, utilizing the fastest optical system in William Optics history to maximize photon collection and shorten exposure tracks.

Advanced 7-Element Petzval Design
Provides a naturally flat image field without requiring an additional field flattener, delivering sharp stars and clean detail across a wide imaging area.

43.2mm Full-Frame Image Circle
Supports full-frame, APS-C, and M4/3 camera systems, giving astrophotographers total freedom for wide-field composition and high-resolution deep-sky imaging.

WIFD (William Optics Internal Focuser Design)
The patented internal focusing system keeps the focusing mechanism centered inside the telescope, improving balance and helping avoid rear drawtube-related flexure or vignetting.

Sensor Tilt Xterminator (STX-R)
Features a heavy-duty rear tilt and rotation interface designed to support modern imaging setups, reducing the chance of rear-end sag while retaining convenient sensor-squaring capability.

Anti-Shrink Lens Cell Technology
Helps maintain stable optical alignment under changing temperatures by minimizing the effects of material expansion and contraction around the lens cell.

Built-In Patented Bahtinov Mask
Integrated into the front cap for quick and accurate focusing, making precise star focus easier in the field.

Patented Handle Bar Design
Improves handling, portability, and accessory mounting while maintaining the clean mechanical layout of the Mighty Cat platform.

The Celestron Origin captures the beauty of celestial objects and transmits them wirelessly to your tablet, smartphone or even a TV screen.

  • The modern way of stargazing and astrophotography: Celestron Origin is a smart telescope. It captures stunning images of faint deep-sky objects at the touch of a button and transmits them to your smartphone or tablet. The images captured in seconds look better than what you would see by eye through the eyepiece of a much larger telescope under much darker skies.
    Revolutionary RASA optics: With the patented 6-inch Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph (RASA), the Origin is a smart telescope with a difference. With its large aperture and fast f/2.2 focal ratio, it produces photos with much greater detail and shorter exposure times than previously possible.
  • Next-generation 678C camera: Equipped with Sony´s latest Starvis 2 color CMOS technology, the Origin 678C offers higher resolution, improved sensitivity, and a noticeable leap in image quality compared to the first generation of the Celestron Origin - Intelligent Home Observatory with the IMX178C sensor.
  • EAA - AI-powered Electronically Aided Astronomy: As Origin acquires data, built-in AI algorithms autonomously stack and process each image in real time. Galaxies and nebulae instantly come to life - sharp, detailed and in brilliant color - without user intervention.
  • Automated setup with StarSense: Set up the Origin outside in the open air, switch it on and connect it to the app. With Celestron´s patented StarSense technology, the telescope pop scans the sky and focuses automatically. Within less than two minutes, you are ready to select a target and start capturing images.
  • Intuitive app interface: The user-friendly Celestron Origin app for iOS and Android, developed in partnership with Simulation Curriculum, the makers of SkySafari, provides a simple yet powerful planetarium interface that makes it easy to navigate the sky and control the system.
  • Share the images with anyone: multiple users can simultaneously view the telescope´s live feed via the Origin app. You can also broadcast the view to your smart TV or save and share instantly.
    Advanced astrophotography: If you want to do the image processing yourself, simply download the raw image files you have taken to a USB stick. You can also experiment with nebula filters such as the nebula filter for Origin Intelligent Home Observatory, or use the Origin for terrestrial observations during the day. Autoguiders and polar wedges for longer exposure times are available separately.
