The Celestron NexStar 6SE SCT GoTo Telescope is Celestron's signature orange-tube telescope, combining advanced features and excellent optics in one easy-to-use system. It's the perfect choice for your first serious telescope, offering striking views at an economical price.
Celestron's Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes, introduced in the 1970s, brought the hobby of astronomy to the masses and established Celestron as the world's premier telescope maker. The founder, Tom Johnson, invented Celestron's proprietary method of producing Schmidt corrector plates for superior views and maximum portability. Johnson believed in creating high-quality optical instruments at an affordable price, inspiring a generation of amateur astronomers.
Four decades later, Celestrons has improved upon this design by adding cutting-edge features, while staying true to their founder's intent. The key to this is the NexStar SE's unique, patented single fork arm mount. It's perfectly portable and makes setup quick and easy. The NexStar SE breaks down into several lightweight and compact pieces, making it easy to transport, even in small vehicles. You'll have no problem getting the NexStar SE to your favorite observing site, or setting it up quickly in your backyard.
The sturdy construction from high-quality components gives the NexStar SE the pointing and tracking accuracy needed to observe and follow your favorite targets with push-button ease. The 6-inch primary mirror in this Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope for adults and kids to be used together packs enough light-gathering ability to observe the best that our Solar System has to offer, while retaining a compact form factor.
Featuring a database of more than 40,000 celestial objects, the go to mount built into our telescopes for astronomy beginners automatically locates and tracks objects for you. The single fork arm design and sturdy steel tripod all assemble and break down from separate components for easy transportation. SkyAlign technology gets your telescope aligned and ready in minutes.
The Celestron NexStar 6SE Computerized Telescope is the perfect choice for your first serious telescope, offering striking views at an economical price. With its advanced features, excellent optics, and easy-to-use design, it's the ideal companion for beginners and experienced observers alike.
