INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Celestron StarSense Explorer Tabletop Dobsonian (SSE Tabletop Dob) telescope. Your
SSE Tabletop Dob combines high-quality reflector optics with the exciting StarSense Explorer dock and app to make finding and
observing all kinds of astronomical objects fun and easy! You’ll be able to locate planets and deep-sky objects—galaxies, nebulae,
star clusters, and more— and place them within the eyepiece’s field of view in seconds. The primary mirror collects lots of light,
enabling you to see details in objects you may have never seen before. Since the telescope is so easy to use, you’ll find yourself
reaching for it often. And with its grab-and-go convenience, it’s perfect for an impromptu backyard stargazing session or a camping
trip to dark skies.
Before taking your SSE Tabletop Dob outside for your first night of observing, we recommend reading this manual. It will help you
better understand your telescope’s features and what to expect.
