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. Read Prof. Ian Morison's glowing review here.....

A 6" f/5 Newtonian is the ideal instrument for the beginner. This telescope offers the brightest images and the highest potential resolving power of all Celestron's Omni series, and its price falls within the budget of every amateur. An attractive design makes this telescope a show piece instrument with a performance to match. Unbeatable.

An excellent first or second telescope, and currently exceptional value for money. Optically identical to the Omni 150XLT, but mounted on the highly capable CG5 Goto mount and heavy-duty stainless steel tripod. A superb all-rounder. Comes with one eyepiece - ask us for our recommended add-on accessories.
