Celestron NexStar SLT 130/650 newton telescope

If you're looking for a telescope that will let you see more celestial objects in the first time than Galileo ever did in his lifetime, and at the best price, the Celestron NexStar 130 SLT is a great choice. The 13 cm optics are large enough and of high quality to show the brightest galaxies, star clusters and surface details of planets and the Moon.

The package includes a 25mm 9mm eyepiece for 26x and 72x magnification, but the focuser can also accommodate 2" eyepieces. The eyepiece tray can hold a variety of accessories, including your sighting body, and the telescopic steel leg can be adjusted to your height. Manual search is made easier by the red illuminated StarPointer, which is also useful for identifying the surroundings of an automatically found object.

Operating the NexStar+ handheld is a breeze, even for first-time telescope buyers. Thanks to the SkyAlign solution, you don't even need to know the stars to get the telescope working. The handheld controller's database of around 4000 objects can locate and track any one of them with just a few button presses. But if that's not enough, you can also control it from a computer. The NexStar mounts are powered by 2x4pcs AA batteries, but can also be operated from a mains power supply (DC 12V).
