Celestron NexStar 130 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 NexStar 114 models inspired us to go bigger! We are
proud to introduce NexStar 130 SLT. The NexStar 130 SLT has 30% more
light-gathering power than our 114mm telescope. And the 114 SLT, like the
other models in the SLT Series, comes with a fully computerized hand
control. 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. With its
pre-assembled, adjustable steel tripod, the NexStar 114 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.
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). Begin to explore some of the fainter Messier objects using the
additional light-gathering capabilities of the 130 SLT`s 5" primary mirror.
Because of the Newtonian design, the mirror gives fully colour-corrected
views that are best suited for astronomical use.
