Celestron NexStar 127 SLT - 127 / 1500mm GoTo Maksutov Telescope

Celestron NexStar SLT 127 - GoTo Maksutov 127 / 1500mm with over 4000 objects


The new SLT series from Celestron offers the joy of astronomy from the beginning. The operation of the controller is very simple and yet very accurate. To calibrate the devices in the sky, not even extensive knowledge of the starry sky is necessary. Just set three bright points of light - the rest is the controls. The optics of the SLT telescopes will convince you from the beginning with good image quality.


Celestron NexStar 127 SLT 127 / 1500mm GoTo


A compact powerful GoTo telescope with sharp imaging

The hand controller already offers switching to the respective national languages, such as German or French. The default is English. The first time you start, you will be asked for the language you can select.

The powerful Maksutov optic with 127mm opening shows the moon and planets with a contrast normally only used by apochromatic refractors. The resolution is so high that even the finest details on planets, such as the famous Cassini division in the Saturn ring or fine structures in the Jupiter bands are easily recognizable.

A Maksutov is just perfect for the moon and planets. If you live in a polluted area and you do not have the opportunity to move to darker areas, you should definitely include this system in your considerations. If you can not see enough deep sky objects anyway, a telescope for the moon and planets (sun ONLY with a suitable filter) is considered. Even in light polluted areas, these objects will always be a worthwhile destination due to their brightness. Although bright deep sky objects are possible, the main focus will be on the moon and planets.

Enjoy beautiful lunar and detailed planet observations (like the rings of Saturn, moon shadow games on Jupiter or its big red spot) and also interesting deep-sky excursions to brighter objects, such as the Orion Nebula, the open binary star cluster (h and chi) in the Perseus or even the galaxy groups M81, not to mention the star cluster in the Hercules M 13!

Together with the bright and high-contrast image, here are beautiful details. Of course, the field of view is slightly smaller than short-range devices, but I do not need it on the moon and planets. Since the longer focal length is advantageous because you do not need additional Barlow lens for higher magnifications. This is used at very high magnifications, if the visibility conditions (low air movement, good transparency of the sky ...) allow it. (Bear in mind that every movement of air is magnified.) Since the moon reflects enough light, it will be used primarily to observe the craters and surface structures of our satellite.

Quick change Device for the tube: You can disconnect the tube from the mount with only one screw, which is ideal for transport. This makes the device much more compact. The quick-change device allows you to attach other devices or even cameras. You stay flexible.

Sky Align - the very simple calibration in the starry sky

Sky Align is the name of Celestron's brand new alignment process. It is especially easy to use.

Step 1 ... Simply enter the date, time and location in the manual control box.
Step 2 ... Take the telescope to three bright stars (moon / planets are also possible)

You do not even need to know the three calibration objects, just put them in the middle.
... and you're done - your NexStar is ready for observation. With relatively quiet servo motors, the device moves to the objects you want to observe.


Delivery:

- Maksutov Cassegrain on GoTo mount with tripod
- 1.25 "eyepiece socket
- 1.25 "zenith mirror
- two good 1.25 "eyepieces 25mm and 9mm focal length
- Red dot finder "Starpointer" for centering the calibration stars
