It is an 8-inch aperture Schmidt-Cassegrain with excellent light-gathering ability for incredible views of deep sky objects. The Celestron NexStar has a fully automated GoTo computerized mount with a database of more than 40,000 celestial objects and auto tracks the objects for you. The telescope can also be easily dismantled into compact pieces for portability and quick assembly, thanks to the unique single fork arm design with a sturdy steel tripod.

Better Stargazing Experience
The NexStar 8SE Telescope features a full 8-inch aperture to reveal spectacular view in even the faintest celestial objects. The light-gathering ability of this telescope also allows you to see Cassini's Division in Saturn's rings, Jupiter's cloud bands and the Great Red Spot. You can see distant stars, detailed geographic features and craters on the moon.
Easy Alignment
The SkyAlign technology makes the aligning process of the telescope simpler. It allows you to center three bright objects in your eyepiece and press the align button, and you're aligned. You can make it even easier by attaching Celestron's StarSense AutoAlign so that it aligns itself.

This scope was easy to put together and set up. I aligned the red dot to a telaphone pole in the distance and it is easy to align with what I want to see. Requires quite a few AA batteries if you don't have a power supply. Image looks good through all eyepieces. Took the photo through the eyepiece without the phone adapter.

We purchased this for our 13 year old son who is a fanatic when it comes to astronomy. The owners guide is good but there's nothing like experience. Putting the unit together out of the box was easy and straight forward. It will take two (2) people to assemble (to make sure you don't drop anything). I was nervous as I've never put a telescope together but it was unfounded. The packaging was excellent with everything protected. Shipping was quicker than described. We've found that you'll go through a ton of batteries as the motor assembly requires six AA and they don't last long. I highly recommend rechargeable batteries. On a side note I've used amazon rechargeable batteries for a long time and really like them. We're now at the stage where we'll be attending local astronomy groups who can help us better understand how and when to use the different color lenses. Good product.
