With a large 102mm objective lens, the Celestron StarSense Explorer DX 102 App-Enabled Refractor Telescope is able to produce exquisite detail and clarity when viewing celestial objects. This is made even better by Celestron's XLT optical coatings which in turn improve light transmission, enhancing the image you will see. Using your phone as your guide to the stars, Celestrons StarSense sky recognition technology will analyse the stars above you and calculate your position in real time. Once your position is obtained, the app will automatically generate a list of objects currently visible. A manual altazimuth mount also allows for smooth, dual-axis slow-motion control; making it easy to follow the directions that appear on the SkySense Explorer App.
Expanded Celestron StarSense Explorer DX 102 App-Enabled Refractor Telescope Key Features:
Refractor or Reflector?
Which one should I be going for? Well, there is a distinct difference between the two types and each type has its own advantage. Reflecting telescopes use mirrors inside the tube, whereas refractor telescopes use lenses and therefore, are often bigger and heavier. Because of this, refractors have become popular as cheaper, lighter and more portable telescopes (great for beginners too). Generally though, refractor telescopes tend to be better for observing planets and the moon and reflectors are better for deep-sky objects, such as galaxies and nebulas.

The Buy Now Pay Later option comprises a 36 month loan following a six month deferral period.
During the six-month deferral period, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is partially repaid within six months, the remaining interest will be adjusted to reflect the new balance. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, however, a £29 early settlement fee is payable in respect of repayments within these six months.
Following the six-month deferral period, Novuna Personal Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 18.9% APR (representative) on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan). Novuna Personal Finance will send a reminder letter approximately one month before the six-month deferral period is due to elapse.
