Quick Setup with SkyAlign Technology

Setting up the NexStar 5SE is simple and fast. Thanks to SkyAlign technology, all you need to do is point the telescope at any three bright objects in the sky, and it will automatically calculate its position. No polar alignment or previous knowledge of the night sky required.

The telescope assembles in minutes with no tools needed, and breaks down easily into lightweight components for storage or travel.
