Revolutionary Design The best telescope is the one you will use most often. Thats why Celestrons engineers created NexStar SEs unique, patented single fork arm mount. Its perfectly portable and makes setup quick and easy.
Whats more, the NexStar SE breaks down into several lightweight and compact pieces, making it easy to transport, even in small vehicles. Youll have no problem getting the NexStar SE to your favorite observing site, or setting it up quickly in your backyard. Of course, its whats inside the mount that really counts.
Sturdy construction from high-quality components give NexStar SE the pointing and tracking accuracy needed to observe and follow your favorite targets with push-button ease. Use the included Nex - Star+ hand control to locate over 40,000 celestial objects, or take a Sky Tour and let your telescope show you the best objects currently visible. Aligning your telescope is simple and painless, too, thanks to Sky - Align.
This process makes alignment as easy as 1-2-3: just center three bright objects in your eyepiece and press ALIGN. For even easier alignment, attach Celestrons Star - Sense Auto - Align and your NexStar SE aligns itself! Celestron added their proprietary Star - Bright XLT optical coating to enhance light transmission making your images brighter and more detailed. Advanced Features The NexStar SE is compatible with all the high-tech accessories advanced users love.
Provide GPS coordinates to your telescope with Sky - Sync, or add automatic alignment functionality with Star - Sense Auto - Align. Its built-in wedge allows you to track long exposures. You can even remove the telescopes secondary mirror and replace it with a DSLR or astronomical CCD camera for wide field images captured at f/2 using a Fastar/Hyper - Star lens assembly.
Or, if youre interested in imaging the Moon and planets, pair your NexStar 5SE with one of Celestron's Skyris cameras. From your first observing session and for years to come, the NexStar SE is your trusted companion.
