There Is Always A Hero In Every Revolution.
Here we have the hero of the Celestron Evolution line, a truly revolutionary telescope. It is the best deal in the current sale. Priced at $1999 you get the best optics Celestron can currently produce in the EdgeHd series. Couple that with the auto-align StarSense system, which would normally be a $349 option, and the ability to control the scope from your smart device or smart phone and you have one awesome set up. No more searching for alignment points. No more being tethered to the scope control pad. Now you have an intuitive control right on your device. The WiFi connection to the device is really all they needed to do to make this scope the best thing since sliced bread. It is truly fantastic seeing my children use the scope with their phones and not just be lost inside the phone texting or watching YouTube videos. It truly has been a blessing and a game changer for my family.
If you don't need the EdgeHd optics, don't worry, the rest of the evolution line is on sale as well. Celestron engineers designed the NexStar Evolution line based on years of customer feedback. Its upgraded single fork arm design offers many thoughtful features that combine to provide you the best possible experience out under the stars. For example, forget about buying boxes of AA batteries to power the scope, or a bulky external battery pack. For the first time ever on a consumer telescope, the NexStar Evolution includes its own built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery. You can enjoy stargazing for up to 10 hours on a single charge, then recharge it at home using the supplied AC adapter. You can even use your NexStar Evolution’s built-in USB charge port to top off the other devices in your life that need to stay powered on during an observing session.
Simply connect your smart phone or tablet to your NexStar Evolution’s built-in wireless network, and you can explore the universe with Celestron's mobile app for iOS and Android. The app has a database of over 120,000 celestial objects for you to explore, including a specially selected list of 220 of the best deep sky and solar system objects that you will come back to enjoy again and again.

The NexStar series has come a long way since its first appearance at a conference room in Las Vegas more than 16 years ago. The price has actually lowered, there are now four sizes instead of the orginal two, and the tracking and electronics have improved greatly.
I have worked here since I was seven years old and have witnessed many different scopes make their way through these doors. I have been fortunate enough to have the pick of the litter, within reason (There is no way my father would let me drag home a $10,000 scope just because. lol), and my current scope at my house is an 8" NexStar. It is easy to get out the door and my kiddos just love its ease of use. So check out the four different models Celestron offers and find the one that catches your eye.
Looking for a great scope to get you going in astronomy?
The NexStar 4 is that and more. The Maksutov optics excel at showing you fine planetary and lunar detail, while the sturdy mount is far above its competition as well as some of Celestron's other scopes that are priced in the same range.
Now on sale for $449, saving you $50.
NASA thought enough about the Celestron 5" SCT optics to take them on many missions on board the Space Shuttle. Can't really say much more to top that.....
Now on sale for $599.
This was the last addition to the NexStar SE line and has been one of the most celebrated. Consistent praise for the optics and the portability. Couple that with the sale price and you have a real winner on your hands.
Now on sale for $699.
Now for the big one. This is the most popular model we sell. The 8" aperture should keep just about everyone busy for years and years, while the 39 pound total weight is easy to haul around. This is the main reason I have an 8" NexStar as my primary scope.
