Review: Outstanding Telescope - I enjoy using this telescope. It's easy to use but a little time-consuming to set up for use, definitely worth the time.
Review: Our thirteen year old loves it. Easy to assemble and easy to use. - We purchased this for our 13 year old son who is a fanatic when it comes to astronomy. The owners guide is good but there's nothing like experience. Putting the unit together out of the box was easy and straight forward. It will take two (2) people to assemble (to make sure you don't drop anything). I was nervous as I've never put a telescope together but it was unfounded. The packaging was excellent with everything protected. Shipping was quicker than described. We've found that you'll go through a ton of batteries as the motor assembly requires six AA and they don't last long. I highly recommend rechargeable batteries. On a side note I've used desertcart rechargeable batteries for a long time and really like them. We're now at the stage where we'll be attending local astronomy groups who can help us better understand how and when to use the different color lenses. Good product.

- Reflecting Telescope: The Celestron NexStar 8SE is a reflecting telescope that captures light through a lens and bounces it off a series of mirrors into the eyepiece where you then see an image. Every mirror reflection causes light loss in reflecting telescopes
- Better Equipped: The computerized telescope is equipped with the on-board NexStar computer system and is compatible with all the high-tech accessories. The computer system is pre-programmed with Sky Tours so that you don't have to manually re-adjust the telescope for every celestial object you look at

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Telescope
*by E***T on April 12, 2025*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stunning views of deep space and GOTO capability is a game changer.
*by M***O on July 28, 2025*

Too amazing to describe. I had a somewhat "toy" telescope for years that I enjoyed using in the backyard but having to constantly adjust the site to the moving earth was not very easy and distracting. But this GOTO computer 8SE Iis truly amazing how it first finds the specific star/planet/asteroid or deep space galaxy/nebula AND then automatically follows it as the Earth turns makes star gazing an entirely different experience. Pricier than the $300 to$500 scopes but worth every penny.
