Celestron NexStar 130SLT Computerised Telescope

The Celestron NexStar 130SLT Computerised Telescope its 5-inch primary mirror will enable you to study and to enjoy the wonders of the sky at night such as detailed views of the Moon’s surface, Saturn’s rings, the ice caps of Mars and even more distant features such as the globular cluster in Hercules.

The telescope features a computerized hand control for directional movement of the telescope to any of the 4000+ celestial objects it can be commanded to take you to. SkyAlign alignment technology makes it straightforward to give the telescope the time and date information and then to point it at three readily distinguished objects in the sky so it can identify them and from that calculate its own position and by extension the positions of all of its database celestial objects.

So the Celestron NexStar 130SLT Computerised Telescope does the tricky work for you to leave you to enjoy seeing fabulous views of 600+ galaxies, 300 clusters and dozens of beautiful binary stars and much, much more.

The Newtonian design of the Celestron NexStar 130SLT Computerised Telescope whose mirror gives fully colour-corrected views makes it more suitable for astronomical use rather than for terrestrial use as well.
