Celestron NexStar 6" SLT Telescope
Schmidt-Cassegrain type astronomical telescope with a 150 mm aperture and a focal length of 1500 mm. The focal ratio is f/10. It is equipped with two eyepieces: 20 and 9 mm and a prismatic diagonal with a 90-degree angle and an input and output diameter of 1.25". It can be used for astronomical observations, observing nebulae and galaxies, and observing the Moon and planets of the Solar System. The telescope can also be used for daytime wildlife observations. The NexStar 6 SLT is easy to use, which, combined with a quickly deployable and adjustable tripod, allows for setting up the telescope in just a few minutes.
StarBright XLT optical coatings
The model is equipped with patented StarBright XLT optical coatings, which improve light transmission and enhance image contrast. This technology allows for more detail when observing fainter objects such as nebulae and galaxies. The coatings also reduce light loss in the optical system, keeping the image brighter and more vivid. This solution is particularly important during planetary observations and deep-sky observations in challenging lighting conditions.
NexStar Go-To control system, SkyAlign technology
The model uses a lightweight azimuth mount equipped with the NexStar Go-To control system. This makes it possible to automatically find objects in the sky. The mount is controlled via a NexRemote controller, which allows you to select a catalog containing 4000 astral objects, including 600 galaxies, 300 star clusters, and numerous double stars.
Calibration is done using SkyAlign technology, which is the simplest, fastest, and most suitable calibration method for beginners. The model also features a RedDot type finder, making it easy to locate bright objects in the sky. The mount is powered by 8 AA batteries, so no additional external power source is needed for field observations. The adjustable tripod is made of stainless steel, which increases the stability of the entire structure during observations at higher magnifications.
