The Celestron NexStar 8SE Telescope combines the iconic orange-tube design with advanced technology and premium optics in an easy-to-use system. With an 8-inch aperture and computerized GoTo mount, it delivers impressive views of the night sky at an accessible price—making it an ideal first serious telescope.
Reimagined Schmidt-Cassegrain Excellence
Building on Celestron’s legacy of innovation, the NexStar 8SE features a classic Schmidt-Cassegrain optical design refined with modern enhancements. Proprietary StarBright XLT optical coatings improve light transmission, producing brighter, more detailed images while maintaining portability and performance.
Revolutionary Single Fork Arm Design
The patented single fork arm mount ensures portability and quick setup. The telescope breaks down into lightweight, compact components for easy transport—perfect for backyard observing or travel to darker skies.
Computerized GoTo Precision
Using the included NexStar+ hand control, access a database of over 40,000 celestial objects. Select Sky Tour to automatically view the best objects visible in your sky. Sturdy construction and precision tracking keep targets centered with push-button ease.

Alignment is effortless with SkyAlign—just center three bright objects and press ALIGN. For even greater convenience, optional StarSense AutoAlign automatically aligns the telescope for you.
Advanced Expandability
Compatible with high-tech accessories such as SkySync GPS and StarSense AutoAlign, the NexStar 8SE grows with your experience. A built-in wedge supports long-exposure tracking, while Fastar/HyperStar compatibility enables ultra-fast f/2 wide-field imaging. Pair it with planetary cameras for detailed lunar and planetary photography.
Powerful 8-Inch Aperture
The 8-inch aperture gathers substantial light, revealing fine details across the solar system and beyond. Observe Cassini’s Division in Saturn’s rings, Jupiter’s cloud bands and Great Red Spot, hundreds of stars in the Hercules Globular Cluster, and the spiral structure of distant galaxies. Lunar craters and surface features appear in striking clarity.
From your first night under the stars to years of exploration, the Celestron NexStar 8SE delivers powerful optics, intuitive operation, and expandable capabilities—making it a trusted companion for discovering the universe.
