Leave your hand control behind and slew to all the best celestial objects with a tap of your smartphone or tablet. Connect your device to NexStar Evolution's built-in wireless network, and explore the universe with the Celestron mobile app for iOS and Android. Use the planetarium interface to view the night sky in real time or display a list of celestial objects currently visible based on your time and location. Our proprietary SkyAlign alignment procedure is built right into the Celestron mobile app, so you're ready to observe within minutes.Celestron engineers designed NexStar Evolution based on years of customer feedback. It offers many thoughtful design features that combine to provide you the best possible experience out under the stars. Forget about batteries or an external power supply. For the first time ever on a consumer telescope, NexStar Evolution includes its own built-in battery. With this ultra-long life lithium-ion phosphate battery, you'll be able to enjoy stargazing marathons up to 10 hours on a single charge. You can even use NexStar Evolution's USB charge port to top off the other devices in your life that need to stay powered on during an observing session. An intelligent power management system senses when battery levels are low and goes into power-saving mode to keep your telescope running for as long as possible.Setting up your NexStar Evolution is quick and painless with large, ergonomic handles. The all-metal tripod features a metal accessory tray with indentations for storing and carrying the tripod. During setup, leg etchings help you achieve a level, uniform height for your telescope. Manual clutches in both altitude and azimuth offer greater flexibility to manually point the telescope when powered off. Store up to 7 eyepieces in 2 accessory trays, one with an adjustable red LED illuminator.If you're interested in astroimaging, the 6-inch NexStar Evolution is an excellent, affordable way to get started. It's the only fork-mounted telescope in its price range that offers brass worm gears, along with improved motors. NexStar Evolution's tracking accuracy is so impressive, you can capture images of deep-sky objects like the Orion Nebula by simply attaching your DSLR camera. As you progress in the hobby of astroimaging, you can add our Pro HD Wedge to achieve longer exposures for more detailed astrophotos.Of course, the Schmidt-Cassegrain optical system offers bright, sharp views with StarBright XLT optical coatings-a great choice for visual observers and budding astroimagers alike.NexStar Evolution is equipped with 4 auxiliary ports--2 on top of the fork and 2 on the bottom. A classic NexStar+ hand control is included, but is not necessary when using NexStar Evolution with the mobile app. The telescope also includes a StarPointer finderscope, two 1.25" Plossl eyepieces, a 1.25" star diagonal, and an AC adapter. Review: Fantastic GoTo Telescope - I have owned about 20 to 30 telescopes over the past 40 years, including 4 previous Celestron 8 scopes. I've owned large Dobs (Teleports and Starmasters), Refractors (Tele Vue and Stellarvue) and even a Meade or two. I was intrigued by the Celestron Evolution EdgeHD with Star Sense. I was not disappointed. The GoTo feature is fantastic. The Star Sense really works. It hunts around the sky, takes pictures, recognizes star patters and then tells you it is aligned. The first time you use it, you need to use manual align so that the Star Sense camera aligns itself to the telescope. This is a one time thing and sounds more complicated than it is. The alignment worked well. Once aligned with star sense (using Auto Align), I selected M57 the Ring nebula and the Evolution scope put it right in the center of the eyepiece...amazing. I picked one celestial object after another (Saturn, Andromeda Galaxy, Dumbbell Nebula, Double Double cluster, Epsilon Lyra, etc.) and each time the Evolution scope landed the item in the center of the eyepiece. It never missed. This happened on repeated nights. When you auto align it asks you to first put the optical tube in the horizontal position. You don't have to be exact in this. A close approximation seems to be all that is required. Nice! I'm so satisfied with the Evolution HD scope that I will likely sell my 102mm Stellarvue. The 8 inch diameter definitely gives you a more satisfying view of deep sky objects than the 4 inch diameter of the refactor (at least for me). I updated the firmware in the telescope...be mindful that it updates the motor software, the Star sense and the hand controller firmware. The documents that come with the scope make you think you need a serial cable with a serial to USB converter cable. You don't. The engineers updated the cable ports so what you need is a USB to mini USB cable. What I couldn't figure out is whether you need one cable or two cables to accomplish all the firmware updates. I've read mixed messages on the Internet. I used only the one cable. Lots of things have been well thought out in the Evolution HD...like captive screws in the tripod, centering help to place the telescope in the mount, the built in lithium battery (no more batteries to trip over in the dark), handles on the base and next to the battery to help carry the telescope, a leveling bubble on the base. To properly balance the optical tube note from the picture that most of it sits forward so you can read the entire Evolution logo. The HD optical tube seems to be of very high quality. The optics are great. Even though my scope was shipped from NY to Hawaii, the scope arrived in perfect collimation. Note that if you decide to attach a reducer to the EvolutionHD in order to get a wider field you can't use the old Celestron reducer. You'll need to get the newer .7 celestron reducer which is more expensive. It is also difficult for dealers to get. Not sure why Celestron is not delivering more to the dealers. All in all this scope is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Review: I'd love to be able to write a positive review for ... - I'd love to be able to write a positive review for this scope, but I haven't had the chance to use it. It arrived a little over two weeks ago and I was very excited to take it for a spin until I found out that one of the tripod screws for the mount was misaligned. Threading is perfectly fine, just doesn't line up with the holes on the mount. I contacted Celestron support and was very pleased to receive a reply email within 48hrs, but am still waiting for the RMA label to send it back for a replacement. This appears to be a good scope and the tripod and mount are quite substantial. Right now, however, it's a very large and expensive paper weight. ## Features - Explore the cosmos with the Celestron NexStar Evolution 6 telescope, featuring a 150mm aperture. - Enjoy stunning views with StarBright XLT optical coatings, enhancing light gathering for bright images. - Wirelessly control your telescope via integrated WiFi and a user-friendly smartphone app. - Perfect for all skill levels, align the telescope easily with SkyAlign, 3-Star, or Solar System Align. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00K6E1S3I | | Batteries | 1 Lithium Metal batteries required. | | Best Sellers Rank | #768 in Camera & Photo Products ( See Top 100 in Camera & Photo Products ) #8 in Catadioptric Telescopes | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 3.8 out of 5 stars (174) | | Date First Available | May 7, 2014 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 36 pounds | | Item model number | 12090 | | Manufacturer | Celestron | | Product Dimensions | 28.5 x 35 x 15 inches | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Celestron - **Eye Piece Lens Description:** Plossl - **Finderscope:** Reflex - **Focus Type:** Manual Focus - **Model Name:** NexStar Evolution - **Objective Lens Diameter:** 150 Millimeters - **Optical Tube Length:** 6 Inches - **Power Source:** Battery Powered,Corded Electric - **Product Dimensions:** 35"D x 28.5"W x 15"H - **Telescope Mount Description:** Altazimuth Mount ## Images ![NexStar Evolution 6 150mm f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope with Integrated WiFi - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51MBMt9CozL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Considering 9.25" evolution vs, upcoming 8" edge hd evolution. which would be a better value for observational use as opposed to heavy astrography?** A: If you are a visual observer (like myself), then aperture will win out over a slightly better optical design. The Edge design helps correct for the use of a spherical mirror in standard SCTs that produces distortion at the edges of the image field (gives a flatter field and eliminates coma). This improvement only becomes noticeable when doing high-end imaging, which is why most serious imagers use either refractors (with field flatteners) or corrected SCTs. Since a visual observer centers the objects he or she wants to look at, the observer pays scant attention to the edges of the image field. Light-gathering power is directly related to the collecting area of the primary optic. A 9.25-inch optic will pull in more light than an 8-inch one. Also, a larger optic produces improved resolution. Celestron's specs are as follows: 8-in: 0.57 arcsec resolution (theoretical maximum) and light-gathering power of 843X; 9.25-in: 0.49 arcsec resolution and light-gathering power of 1127X. I would not hesitate to choose the 9.25-in Evolution over the 8-in Edge. Further, the tripod for the 9.25 is beefier than the one used for the 6-in and 8-in Evolutions (same tripod is used for the 8-in Edge version). I chose the 8-in Evolution over the 9.25-in for two reasons: one was cost ($1,600 vs $2,100) and the other was weight. (I am a senior citizen, and while I could handle the 9.25 tube now, as I got older, getting the 9.25 optical tube attached to the mount would get harder with an increasing possibility that I might drop it during the attaching process.) The Evolution 8-in Edge costs $100 more than the 9.25-in and $500 more than the standard 8-in. Other than the enhanced performance for imagers, the only other new feature is the StarSense AutoAlign that automatically aligns the scope without further input from the observer. I don't know how well this works. I can say that the "regular" Evolution scopes can be aligned using either the handset (which permits several options) or the SkyPortal app, which just uses SkyAlign (you choose three bright stars). SkyAlign does require observer input, though it is pretty easy and has always worked well for me (using either my 8-in or my university's 6-in Evolution). Also note that serious imaging with the 8-in Edge Evolution cannot be done without the addition of a wedge that converts the alt-az into an equatorial set-up. (Alt-az mounts produce field rotation that limits one's ability to perform very-long exposure astro-imaging.) Frankly, I do not see many serious imagers opting for the 8-in Edge Evolution, as they will probably gravitate to the heavier (and thus more stable) dual arm CPC series with an Edge optical tube. Overall, I think that the Evolution series is the best and easiest-to-use mount and optical tube combination currently available today for visual observers. **Q: Once you align the telescope, does it automatically track with the Earth's rotation to keep an object in the field of view?** A: It will keep an object centered but the stars around it will appear to rotate over time. For visual work this is not a problem but for long camera exposures, the stars around it will appear to rotate (called "field rotation"). If you are going to get into astrophotography it is best to get an equatorial mount and a high quality one too. I like the Sky Watcher AZ-EQ5 but the AZ-EQ6 is even better for bigger payloads (OTA (optical tube assembly), finder, diagonal, eyepiece, guiding scope, etc.) **Q: How does the Celestron NexStar Evolution 8 compare to the Celestron NexStar 8 SE Telescope? What's different beyond Wifi? Does it have internal GPS?** A: Brass worm gears, clutch locks in both axis (you can manually move the telescope), internal rechargeable battery, padded illuminated eyepiece holder, multiple auxiliary ports (alludes to new products to come??), superior tripod in features and functions, comes with 2 eyepieces instead of one (this is how you change magnification). Call us for more information if you like, we love helping amateur astronomers ;-) 888-471-9991 **Q: It doesn't look like a barlow lens is included. Should I get a barlow lens? Which barlow lens would you recommend?** A: The lenses included are fine for viewing clusters of stars, nebulae, and bright planets (including all 4 of Jupiter's Galilean moons). I recommend getting a higher quality barlow (2-4x), since higher magnification means less light, higher SNR, so to speak, so reduce the noise. I've tried buying 2.8mm medium grade lenses, but at that magnification, imperfections in lens design distort the image. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic GoTo Telescope *by G***N on September 29, 2017* I have owned about 20 to 30 telescopes over the past 40 years, including 4 previous Celestron 8 scopes.

Did need to know length of time to charge battery which Celestron failed to mention in instructions (Initial is 4 to 8 hours until light stops blinking had to google it.) Item was double boxed. I was impressed at the ease of alignment( as long as you get each alignment star in middle of eyepiece your good to go), and then how easy it was and how fast it aligned to what you wanted to look at with the iphone app, was a joy to use. Looked at Orion nebula using the supplied optics and it was beautiful so the quality is there. Took about 8 to 10 minutes to set up then align the scope that is pretty darn fast. My first scope was a goto meade DS-114 was a disaster. The quality was just horrible. Goto the trash was more like it lol. I will suggest anyone buying this scope buy the http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0069VXRLS/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_2. these are a great set of eyepieces at a great price and gives you a good selection with colored filters add in the 2 celestron eye pieces that come with this scope and that is 6 eyepieces plus the 2 x barlow. None of them will be the same mm size either. I tried them all last night great quality plossl. You won't be disappointed, at this price I wasn't. I wanted a good telescope to show my grandkids and my wife and kids the stars and I believe with this telescope I can finally do just that. ## Frequently Bought Together - Celestron NexStar Evolution 6 Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope w/WiFi,Black 12090 - Celestron 81057 NexYZ DX 3-Axis Smartphone Adapter Kit with Bluetooth Shutter Remote - Capture Images and Video Through Your Telescope, Spotting Scope, Binoculars, Monocular and Microscope, Black - Celestron 94003 Deluxe Carry Case for 4, 5, 6 and 8 inch NexStar SE,Evolution,EdgeHD,Schmidt-Cassegrain Optical Tubes, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/6005732-nexstar-evolution-6-150mm-f-10-schmidt-cassegrain-telescope-integrated](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/6005732-nexstar-evolution-6-150mm-f-10-schmidt-cassegrain-telescope-integrated) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
