About this product

The Celestron NexStar 130SLT puts computerised stargazing in your hands, making astronomy accessible whether tracking Saturn's rings or exploring nebulae. This fully automated Newtonian reflector locates and tracks celestial objects after quick setup. Its 130mm parabolic mirror gathers 345 times more light than the human eye, revealing planets, star clusters, and galaxies in detail. The Sky Tour function suggests optimal objects based on your location and time, removing guesswork. Weighing 8.53kg with a full-height tripod, it's stable yet manageable for back garden or dark-sky sessions.

You'll enjoy magnifications from 26x to 72x, ideal for exploring the moon's craters, Jupiter's cloud bands, and deep sky objects. The computerised altazimuth mount tracks objects to keep them centred without adjustment. Setup is simple - align the telescope and let the celestial database navigate. Powered by 8 AA batteries (not included), it runs without mains power, perfect for remote sites. The Newtonian reflector with a parabolic mirror delivers sharp, bright views of planets and faint deep sky objects. Backed by a 2-year guarantee, this telescope suits beginners and enthusiasts alike.
