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.
