Telescope lenses…..HELP?

I just bought the Celestron Nexstar 130SLT computerized telescope and it is absolutely amazing, it only comes with 2 basic lenses, a 9mm and a 25 mm, they work very good and objects appear very clear and sharp, especially the moon!lol....but im not quite sure these 2 lenses are capable of seeing planets like mars, jupiter, venus and even saturn, because if the moon appears somewhat close in the lenses i view it in, how can planets hundreds of thousands of miles away be as clear as the instuction guide says they will be? I was reading an article someone posted on the celestron website about this particular telescope and mentioned a number of lenses that are capable of seeing planets, galaxies, nebulae and clusters, i forget the names and sizes of the lenses the guy mentioned but i do remember him bringing up a barlow lense...i know, that doesnt quite narrow it down for you guys,lol. But what i was wondering, for my particular telescope, what lenses should i get that can see far and distant objects like the ones i mentioned??? What brands and sizes do you recommend? and prices if you can? Even websites and links would be even better,lol. Ive seen images on websites of jupiter, saturn, clusters, nebulas, and even the andromeda galaxy viewed with my telescope and they were awesome! So clear and sharp! and very close...but the man that posted the images didnt mention the lenses he used....can any of you guys help me out please? it will be very much appreciated! thanks a million! :-)
