StarSense Explorer is ideal for beginners thanks to its user-friendly interface and detailed tutorials. It's like having your own personal guide to the night sky.
Dock, launch, explore
Leave complicated star charts, imprecise planetarium programs, and computer-controlled mounts behind. With the StarSense Explorer, finding objects has never been easier, faster, or more accurate. Within minutes of setting up the telescope, you can confidently navigate the sky. Simply place your phone in the StarSense dock and launch the StarSense Explorer app. After aligning your phone with the telescope's optics, the StarSense Explorer generates a list of currently visible celestial objects. Make your selection, and arrows appear on the screen to guide you as you move the telescope. When the object is visible in the eyepiece, the crosshairs turn green.
Perfect views with high-quality optics
With its large 114 mm objective lens, this telescope has sufficient light-gathering power to reveal details in celestial objects. You can expect sharp, bright views of Jupiter's four Galilean moons, its cloud bands, and its Great Red Spot, as well as the rings of Saturn and the Trapezium stars in the Orion Nebula. Don't miss the beautiful Pleiades open star cluster.
Perfect for the city as well as dark locations
Even if you live in a location with slightly bright skies and moderate light pollution, the StarSense Explorer is powerful enough to locate Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, the Orion Nebula, double stars, and some other famous celestial objects. However, if you can move the telescope to a slightly darker location, even more objects will become visible. With this 4.5-inch Newtonian telescope and relatively dark skies, the Andromeda Galaxy, the globular cluster M13 in Hercules, and many others are easily visible. The entire telescope weighs just 4.71 kg, making it perfectly portable and easy to take with you on your next camping trip or to a remote observing site.
Reflecting telescope – explore the depths of space
Thanks to its efficient design, the reflecting telescope is extremely bright despite its relatively small size, making it suitable for use at night. Explore the infinite depths of space, observe the stars and planets, and observe the changes in the position of the stars.
