Celestron NexStar GoTo Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope SC Various Models

Most people buy a telescope… and never touch it again. Too complicated. Too slow. Too much searching.

The Celestron NexStar SE series is designed to solve that. Set it up once, and it automatically guides you to thousands of celestial objects. Saturn? Click. Jupiter? Click. Andromeda, Orion Nebula, double stars, clusters? You’ll find them, even if you have no idea where they are.

Why this telescope is different

• The Schmidt-Cassegrain optics combines long focal length with a compact design. You get sharp, bright images in a backpack-friendly size.
• The computerized GoTo mount contains thousands of objects in its database. One button press and your telescope automatically points to your target.
• The SkyAlign technology ensures you’re ready to start in less than 5 minutes – just point to three random stars, and the telescope knows its location.

What you can see (depending on model):

• The Moon: crystal clear, with fine detail
• Planets: Saturn with its rings, Jupiter with its moons and cloud bands, Mars with polar caps
• Deep-sky objects: star clusters like M13, nebulae like the Orion Nebula, galaxies like Andromeda
• Double stars: easily split pairs like Albireo or Mizar
