  • Celestron Padded Telescope Bag for 6" RASA

    This Celestron Padded Telescope Bag provides a secure, custom-fit transport solution for your 6" RASA optical tube, featuring a rugged 900 Denier Polyester exterior and dense 39mm (1.5") EPE foam walls. With internal dimensions of 489mm x 180mm x 180mm, the bag is precisely tailored to the RASA 6, and at just 3.96 lbs, it offers robust protection without adding significant weight to your field setup.

    900 Denier Shell & 39mm EPE Foam Padding

    The bag's construction is engineered for durability and protection during transit and storage. The outer shell is made from 900 Denier polyester, a heavy-duty fabric resistant to weather and abrasions, while the walls are lined with 39mm (1.5") thick EPE foam to cushion the optical tube against bumps and shocks. The soft interior lining ensures the telescope's finish remains free of scratches.

    Smart Storage and Easy Transport for the 6" RASA

    Designed for convenience, this bag features a full-length zipper that allows you to easily guide the 6" RASA into place. Inside, a dedicated pocket with a secure closure holds the RASA's specific filter drawer and camera adapter, preventing them from moving freely during transport. For carrying, you have the choice of two sturdy, sewn-in handles or the included adjustable, padded shoulder strap for hands-free portability.

  • Will the Celestron Padded Bag fit my 6" RASA with the camera attached?

    No, the bag is designed to fit the 6" RASA optical tube only, with internal dimensions of 489mm x 180mm x 180mm. You will need to remove your imaging camera before placing the tube in the bag. The internal pocket is specifically designed to hold the small filter drawer and camera adapter.

    Is this bag compatible with the Celestron Origin or other telescopes?

    This padded bag is custom-designed exclusively for the 6" RASA optical tube and the optical tube from the Advanced VX 6" RASA telescope kit. It is not compatible with the Celestron Origin or any other telescope model.

    How much protection does the 39mm foam in the Celestron Padded Bag for 6" RASA provide?

    The 39mm (1.5") thick EPE foam provides substantial protection against common bumps, vibrations, and shocks encountered during transport in a vehicle or while carrying it to an observing site. While it offers excellent cushioning, as a soft case, it is not designed to protect against severe impacts or crushing forces like a hard-sided case would.

    What is the easiest way to load the 6" RASA into the Celestron Padded Bag?

    For easiest loading, unzip the circular end of the bag and the main zipper that runs lengthwise. This allows you to open the bag fully. Carefully slide the optical tube in, aligning the Vixen-style dovetail bar with the lengthwise zipper path for a perfect fit.

    Can I carry the Advanced VX 6" RASA telescope in this bag with the mount attached?

    No, this bag is designed to hold only the optical tube assembly (OTA) of the 6" RASA. You must detach the OTA from the Advanced VX mount before storing it in the bag. The mount and tripod must be transported separately.

    How secure is the internal pocket in the Celestron Padded Bag for 6" RASA?

    The internal pocket is designed with a snap-button closure to hold the filter drawer and camera adapter securely. This prevents these small, critical components from shifting during transport and keeps them protected alongside your optical tube.
