Description

Computerized planetary observation is the central configuration of the Celestron MC 102/1325 NexStar 4 SE GoTo, a 102 mm Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope with a 1325 mm focal length and listed f/13 optical ratio. Its NexStar SE computerized alt-azimuth mount includes a single-fork arm, built-in equatorial wedge, NexStar+ hand controller, SkyAlign system, 38,181-object database, StarPointer finder, 25 mm eyepiece, steel tripod, and accessory tray for guided observation.

The verified NexStar 4SE configuration uses StarBright XLT coatings and provides sidereal, solar, and lunar tracking modes with multiple alignment procedures, including SkyAlign, one-star, two-star, and solar-system alignment. The Maksutov-Cassegrain optical tube supports long-focus lunar and planetary observation, while the built-in wedge provides an equatorial tracking option for compatible use without converting the telescope into a separate mount system.
