Celestron NexStar 102 SLT
Designed
to be an affordable entry level to mid-level computerized GoTo telescope,
the NexStar Star Locating Telescope (SLT) refractors and reflectors are
available in the most popular sizes and are loaded with valuable design
features. With pre-assembled, adjustable stainless steel tripods, and quick
release fork arms and tubes, NexStar SLT telescopes can be set up in a
matter of minutes — with no tools required! You can see details of the lunar
surface, Venus and its phases, Mars resolved as an orange disc, Jupiter and
its four moons, Saturn with its rings plainly visible and much more!
Intelligent Design
Powered by 8 AA user supplied batteries or an optional AC adapter (#18773)
these NexStar GoTo`s love to travel. The internal battery compartment
provides power to the high precision servo motors for rigid low-vibration
performance while eliminating cord wrap issues associated with external
battery packs. With the NexStar`s ergonomically-designed hand control, the
user is free to remove the hand control from its holder for remote use or
leave it cradled for hands-free operation. With a touch of a button you can
select the object catalog, change the slew speed, view fascinating
information about an object, or simply know if a desired object is visible
in the sky.
Celestron`s Revolutionary SkyAlign
Using Celestron`s patented SkyAlign* (patent pending), simply input the
date, time and location into the hand control then slew the telescope to any
three bright celestial objects in the sky. You do not need to know the names
of the stars — you could even pick the moon or bright planets!
To assist in the star alignment, the NexStar uses a lightweight Star Pointer
Finderscope. The Star Pointer is the quickest and easiest way to point your
telescope exactly to the desired object in the sky. It's like having a laser
pointer that you can shine directly onto the night sky. No need to worry
about the inverted images you see through traditional finders, just align
the red dot seen through the Star Pointer with the desired star in the sky.
It's that easy.
The popularity of our previous short tube refractor models inspired us to go
a step further with the introduction of our NexStar 102 SLT. You'll find
that astronomical viewing is a delight with this large, powerful 4"
telescope. The 102 SLT offers a 63% increase in image brightness over 80mm
models. This short-tube telescope with a fast f/5 optical system gives
images that are bright and crisp. And the 102 SLT, like the other models in
the SLT Series, comes with a fully computerized hand control with a database
of over 4,000 celestial objects! With its pre-assembled, adjustable steel
tripod, the NexStar 102 SLT can be up and ready to use in a matter of
minutes. Our new SkyAlign alignment technology and the included Star Pointer
Finderscope with a red LED makes aligning a breeze.
Because of its wide 1.7 ° field of view, the NexStar 102 SLT is optimal for
scanning large areas of the sky and for superb terrestrial (land) viewing. A
wonderful entry to mid-level astronomical scope, with the use of an optional
erect image diagonal, the 102 SLT can also be used as a land-based spotting
telescope.
