Celestron StarSense Explorer DX 130 Reflector

The Celestron StarSense Explorer DX 130 is a 130mm Newtonian reflector that brings together powerful optics and modern smartphone navigation. With patented StarSense technology and the StarSense Explorer app, this telescope uses advanced sky recognition (LISA algorithm) to help you locate celestial objects in real time, making night sky exploration easier than ever.

Key Features

130mm Newtonian Reflector – Large aperture with enhanced mirror coatings for bright, detailed views.

StarSense Navigation – Integrated smartphone dock powered by the LISA algorithm for accurate object identification.

Smooth Tracking – Stable altazimuth mount with geared slow-motion controls on both axes.

Full-Height Tripod – Adjustable tripod with accessory tray for stable and comfortable observing.

Finder Included – StarPointer red-dot finder allows quick manual targeting when needed.

Versatile Use – Excellent for planetary, deep-sky, and terrestrial observation.

Optical Performance

With its wide 130mm aperture, the DX 130 delivers exceptional light-gathering power. View Saturn’s rings, Jupiter and its moons, or bright nebulae and galaxies like Andromeda with clarity. This telescope is equally effective for deep-sky exploration under dark skies as it is for lunar and planetary observation closer to home.

Portability

Despite its impressive optical performance, the StarSense Explorer DX 130 remains portable, weighing just 8.2 kg. Its lightweight design makes it easy to transport between backyard setups, camping trips, or remote dark-sky locations.
