A portable telescope that is easy to use and works well not only for observations carried out at home, but also during trips into the field. It is convenient to use and enables more advanced observations.
Telescopes from the Celestron SLT series are characterized by short catadioptric optical tubes and lightweight single-arm altazimuth mounts equipped with the GoTo system. Such a system is a significant advantage because it allows automatic searching for objects in the night sky - especially useful in the case of less visible observation targets. In turn, the RedDot finder will make it easy to locate bright objects in the sky.
Using a single button on the controller, you can select a catalog of 4000 astronomical objects, change the rotation speed, display information about the object, or simply find out whether the desired object is visible in the sky.
The objective diameter is 102 mm, and the focal length is 660 mm. The corrector plate has an anti-reflective coating, which helps minimize light loss. Focus is adjusted using a knob on the rear wall of the tube.
The single-arm altazimuth mount with the GoTo system has a built-in equatorial wedge and can be powered by batteries.
A NexStar controller with a database of 4000 objects is used here. The mount can be connected to a computer, which makes it possible to control it using popular astronomy software. An additional RS232-USB converter is required.
The high-quality eyepiece has a focal length of 25 mm and a field of view of 1.7 degrees.

MILITARY is a premium dealer of Celestron.
Celestron is an American company specializing in the production of optical equipment, operating continuously since 1960. From the beginning of its activity, it has developed innovative solutions supporting both amateur astronomers and professional users. It gained popularity thanks to Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes, which set new standards in astronomical observation. Breakthrough technologies developed by Celestron include, among others, the automatic StarSense AutoAlign alignment system and the NexStar controller, which make sky observation much easier. Advanced telescopes from the EdgeHD series are also used in scientific observatories, and Fastar technology allows exceptionally fast sky imaging while maintaining high detail quality. The brand has earned recognition worldwide and is regarded as one of the leading telescope manufacturers in the mid-range segment.
