Product Information

Description

The popularity of the NexStar 114 models inspired Celestron to go bigger! The computerized hand control gives you the ability to automatically slew to any of its 4,000+ objects, including over 600 galaxies, 300 clusters and dozens of beautiful binary stars. Specifications View the details of the lunar surface, the rings of Saturn, the polar ice caps on Mars, the cloud belts on Jupiter or a number of the Messier objects such as the globular cluster in Hercules (M13), or the Great Nebula in Orion (M42). Because of the Newtonian design, the mirror gives fully color-corrected views that are best suited for astronomical use. The NexStar 130 SLT has 30% more light-gathering power than the 114mm telescope. NexStar SLT refractors like the 102 SLT can also be used as land-based spotting scopes. You'll see details of the lunar surface, Venus and its phases, Mars resolved as an orange disc, Jupiter and four moons, Saturn with rings plainly visible and much more!
