PlaneWave Instruments was founded in 2006 by Richard Hedrick and Joseph Haberman, two former telescope engineers at Celestron, the second largest telescope manufacturer worldwide. Richard Hedrick brings over 21 years of experience in telescope design.  Hedrick worked for 11 years as former Chief Technology Officer and previous owner of Celestron where he was responsible for developing Celestron’s award winning Schmidt-Cassegrain computerized telescopes.  Joseph Haberman has over 20 years experience in telescope making and worked for Celestron for five years as an optical engineer and master optician.  Getting a product like the Corrected Dall-Kirkham (CDK) into the hands of serious imagers and amateur astronomers has been a shared vision of Hedrick and Haberman for many years. PlaneWave Instruments is committed to providing the highest quality observatory-class products for serious astronomers.
