Celestron StarSense Explorer DX 130AZ Smartphone Telescope
The Celestron StarSense Explorer DX 130AZ Smartphone Telescope allows you to tour the night sky with your smartphone—no experience required! The StarSense Explorer app calculates your position in real time and guides you with a list of currently visible objects.
What you can see
See planets, brighter nebulae and galaxies, star clusters, and double stars from the city. See faint, deep sky objects from darker skies.
Ease-of-use
Dual-axis slow-motion controls on a manual alt-azimuth mount make it easy to follow arrows in-app to your target. Eyepiece viewing is ready when the app’s bullseye turns green.
