Celestron Maksutov telescope MC 90/1250 NexStar 90 SLT GoTo

Introducing the NexStar SLT series, featuring cutting-edge SkyAlign technology, these computerized GoTo telescopes offer an extensive database and exceptional value for astronomy enthusiasts.

With a fully assembled tripod and quick-release couplings, setting up is a breeze and requires no tools. The OTA on a fork arm allows for quick attachment to the mount.

Experience a vast range of celestial objects with ease, and let the computer guide you to the best targets month by month.

Operated by precision servo motors and electronic position encoders, power options include 8 AA batteries, a 12V/2A power supply, or compatible power tanks. The NexStar hand controller is internet-upgradable, providing access to over 4,000 objects at your fingertips.
