DESCRIPTION

The popularity of our NexStar 114 models inspired us to go bigger! We are proud to introduce
NexStar 130 SLT. The NexStar 130 SLT has 30% more light-gathering power than our
114mm telescope.

And the 130 SLT, like the other models in the SLT Series, comes with a fully computerized
hand control. The computerized hand control gives you the ability to automatically slew to
any of its 4,000+ objects, including over 600 galaxies, 300 clusters and dozens of beautiful
binary stars. With its pre-assembled, adjustable steel tripod, the NexStar 114 SLT can be up
and ready to use in a matter of minutes. Our new SkyAlign alignment technology and the
included StarPointer Finderscope with a red LED makes aligning a breeze.

View the details of the lunar surface, the rings of Saturn, the polar ice caps on Mars, the
cloud belts on Jupiter or a number of the Messier objects such as the globular cluster in
Hercules (M13), or the Great Nebula in Orion (M42). Begin to explore some of the fainter
Messier objects using the additional light-gathering capabilities of the 130 SLT’s 5" primary
mirror.

Because of the Newtonian design, the mirror gives fully color-corrected views that are best
suited for astronomical use.
