Celestron NexStar 4 SE Telescope

Portable telescope, which is equipped with an optical tube of the Makusutov system with a diameter of 102 mm and a focal length of 1325 mm. The StarBright XLT anti-reflection coating nullifies light loss, which translates into more accurate observations. The whole thing is powered by 8 head-mounted AA batteries or a 12-volt power supply (not included).

Celestron SE series telescopes are characterized by their construction in the form of short catadioptric optical tubes and single-arm lightweight azimuthal mounts, which are equipped with the GoTo system. The system allows automatic search for objects in the sky - especially useful for less visible observational targets. In turn, the RedDot finder will allow you to easily locate bright objects in the sky.

The mount uses a NexStar controller with a database of 40000+ objects, with 9 rotation speeds. For proper operation of the system, it is necessary to manually set up to 3 reference objects, which allows searching for both objects contained in the database and those defined by the user. The mount can be connected to a computer, making it possible to control it using popular astronomy software. An additional RS232-USB converter is required.

The SCT adapter (not included) allows you to connect a camera. As an option, it is possible to connect the Star Sense automatic guidance system, as well as the Celestron SkySync GPS module. In turn, the SkyQ Link module allows control via WiFi.

The kit includes:
- NexStar 4 SE telescope,
- StarPointer finder,
- 25mm (60x) eyepiece,
- steel tripod,
- software on CD: NexRemote V1.6.14 & The Sky L1.
