Schmidt-Cassegrain type astronomical telescope with an aperture of 150 mm and a focal length of 1500 mm. The focal ratio is f/10. It is equipped with 2 eyepieces: 20 and 9 mm, as well as a prismatic angle cap with an angle of 90 degrees and an entrance and exit diameter of 1.25". It can be used for astronomical observations, observing nebulae and galaxies, as well as observing the Moon and planets of the solar system. The telescope can also be used for daytime wildlife observation.

The NexStar 6 SLT is easy to use, which, combined with a quick-folding and adjustable tripod, allows the telescope to be up and running in just a few minutes.

The model uses a lightweight azimuthal mount, which is equipped with the NexStar Go-To control system . This makes it possible to automatically search for objects in the sky. The mount is controlled by the NexRemote remote control, which allows you to select a catalog of 4,000 astral objects, including 600 galaxies, 300 star clusters and many double stars. Calibration is done using SkyAlign technology. This is the easiest , fastest and most suitable method of calibration for beginners. The model is also equipped with a RedDot finder, which allows you to easily locate bright objects in the sky.

The mount is powered by 8 AA batteries, so you don't need an additional external power source for field observations.
