Celestron 22482 StarSense Explorer 150mm Tabletop Dobsonian Smartphone App-Enabled Telescope Works with StarSense App to Help You Find Nebulae, Planets & More – iOS/Android Compatible

Celestron revolutionises the Tabletop Dobsonian telescope with StarSense Explorer. This innovative telescope combines sky recognition technology and your smartphone to analyse and track celestial objects in real time. The user-friendly app interface and detailed tutorials make stargazing feel like having a personal tour guide. Say goodbye to complex star charts and imprecise planetarium apps. With StarSense Explorer, locating objects becomes easy, fast, and highly accurate. Setup is a breeze, and within minutes you'll confidently navigate the night sky. Just place your phone in the StarSense dock, launch the app, and perform a quick alignment. The app then generates a list of visible celestial objects specific to your location. Arrows guide your telescope as you move it towards the selected object, and a green bullseye indicates when it's ready to view. With its 150mm parabolic primary mirror, this telescope offers light-gathering capabilities for detailed views of celestial wonders like Jupiter's moons, Saturn's rings, and the Orion Nebula. The stable Tabletop Dobsonian base provides a sturdy foundation and is compact and lightweight for easy transportation. Smooth motion in altitude and azimuth is ensured by Teflon bearings, while the integrated altitude "brake" system allows for tension adjustment. The tube rings and a dovetail bar allow easy positioning for ergonomic viewing, and an eyepiece rack keeps extra eyepieces within reach.
