You don't need to be familiar with any stars to use the Celestron SLT series of go to scopes. you can use any bright stars for alignment.
If you get an SLT, be sure to follow Trevor's advice, and get the 127 Mak.
The 130 tube is too long for the mount, and therefore somewhat
unstable. You can always trade up to a larger scope later if the interest is maintained.
