Celestron StarSense Explorer LT 127AZ
Celestron has reinvented the handheld telescope with StarSense Explorer. The first telescope to use your smartphone to analyze the night sky and calculate its position in real time. StarSense Explorer is ideal for beginners thanks to the app’s user-friendly interface and detailed tutorials. It’s like having your own personal guide of the night sky.
Dock, launch, explore
Leave behind complicated star charts, inaccurate planetarium apps and computer-controlled containers. With StarSense Explorer, locating objects has never been easier, faster or more accurate. Within minutes of setting up the telescope, you’ll be navigating the sky with confidence. Place your phone in the unique StarSense dock and launch the StarSense Explorer app. After aligning your phone with the telescope’s optics (a quick 2-minute procedure), StarSense Explorer generates a list of currently visible celestial objects. Make sure your selection and arrows appear on the screen and guide you in moving the telescope. When the object is ready to view, the rose turns green.
Smartphone compatibility
StarSense Explorer works with most modern smartphones, including iPhone 6 and above and most Android 7.1.2 or above devices manufactured since 2016. Click herefor a full compatibility list.
StarSense Explorer uses patent-pending technology and your smartphone to determine exactly where the telescope is in the night sky. A Lost in Space Algorithm (LISA), like the one satellites in orbit use to properly reorient themselves, helps the app match star patterns it detects overhead in its internal database.
While other astronomy apps may claim to help you find objects. They rely solely on the phone’s gyros and accelerometers, which aren’t as accurate as LISA technology. No other app can accurately tell you when your target is visible in the eyepiece.
With the simple alt azimuth mount of the StarSense Explorer LT you can easily move the telescope to find your target. A slow-motion height adjustment knob helps you fine-tune the telescope’s aiming position. And track targets as they appear to float across the night sky. It’s all anchored by a full-height adjustable tripod.
Beautiful views with 127 mm reflector
With a large 127mm reflector, this telescope has enough light-gathering power to bring out impressive details in celestial bodies. You can expect sharp, clear views of Jupiter’s four Galilean moons, the cloud bands and Great Red Spot, Saturn’s rings, the trapezoid in the Orion nebula and the beautiful Pleiades Open Star Cluster. The aluminum coating on the main and secondary mirror provide a high light transmission and are provided with a SiO2 coating to prevent oxidation of the aluminum coating. A kind of protection layer on the main and secondary mirror.
Perfect for city or dark sky sites
Even if you live in a lightly polluted city location, StarSense Explorer is sophisticated enough to distinguish Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, the Orion nebula, double stars and some of the most famous celestial bodies.
But if you can move the telescope to an even darker location, more objects will become visible. With this 5 inch reflector and relatively dark skies, the Andromeda Galaxy, Hercules Open Star Cluster and many more are easily within reach.
The whole telescope kit weighs only 5.17 kg, so it is perfectly portable and easy to take with you on your next camping trip or to a remote observation site.
