The light coming through a MAK\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003epasses through the corrector lens to the primary mirror and back to a spherical secondary mirror before it hits the eyepiece.

Instead of a secondary mirror, the MAK\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003efeatures a “secondary spot” of reflective coating applied directly to the inside of the corrector plate. Because of this, the telescope does not require occasional collimation like a Schmidt-Cassegrain.

You’ll have no problem getting the NexStar SE to your favorite observing site, or setting it up quickly in your backyard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course, it’s what’s inside the mount that really counts. Sturdy construction from high-quality components give NexStar SE the pointing and tracking accuracy needed to observe and follow your favorite targets with push-button ease. Use the included NexStar+ hand control to locate over 40,000 celestial objects, or take a Sky Tour and let your telescope show you the best objects currently visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAligning your telescope is simple and painless, too, thanks to SkyAlign. This process makes alignment as easy as 1-2-3: just center three bright objects in your eyepiece and press ALIGN.
