[iansas]

Up for sale is a lovely used Celestron Nexstar 6 SE computerized telescope in excellent condition, comes with Power tank accessories and carry case.

 

Aligning your telescope is simple and painless, too, thanks to SkyAlign. This process makes alignment as easy as 1-2-3: just center three bright objects in your eyepiece and press ALIGN.

 

The 6SE’s six-inch primary mirror packs enough light-gathering ability to observe the best that the solar system has to offer: Saturn’s rings, the cloud bands on Jupiter, and geographic features on the surface of the Moon. When it comes to deep sky objects, take your 6SE to a dark-sky site and you’ll see hundreds of pinpoint stars.

 

Perfectly portable making setup quick and easy. The NexStar 6SE breaks down into several lightweight and compact pieces, making it easy to transport. You’ll have no problem getting the NexStar SE to your favorite observing site, or setting it up quickly in your backyard.

 

Sturdy construction from high-quality components give NexStar SE the pointing and tracking accuracy needed to observe and follow your favorite targets with push-button ease. Use the included NexStar+ hand control to locate over 40,000 celestial objects, or take a Sky Tour and let your telescope show you the best objects currently visible.

 

Celestron’s signature orange-tube telescope combines advanced features and excellent optics in one easy-to-use system. It’s the perfect choice for your first serious telescope. Automatically finds and tracks planets and stars in the nights sky.
