Celestron StarSense Explorer DX 130AZ Smartphone App-Enabled Telescope
Celestron has revolutionized the manual telescope experience with the introduction of the StarSense Explorer – the first telescope that utilizes your smartphone to analyze the night sky and determine its precise position in real-time. Designed with beginners in mind, the StarSense Explorer offers a user-friendly interface and comprehensive tutorials through its dedicated mobile app, guiding you like a personal tour guide through the wonders of the cosmos.
Ditch the complicated star charts, imprecise planetarium apps, and finicky computerized mounts – the StarSense Explorer makes locating celestial objects easier, faster, and more accurate than ever before. Within minutes of setting up the telescope, you'll be navigating the night sky with confidence. Simply place your smartphone in the unique StarSense dock and launch the app. After a quick, 2-minute alignment process, the app will generate a list of the objects currently visible, allowing you to select your desired target. On-screen arrows will then guide you as you move the telescope, and the bullseye will turn green when the object is ready to be viewed through the eyepiece.
The StarSense Explorer is compatible with most modern smartphones, including iPhone 6 and later, as well as Android devices running 7.1.2 or newer, manufactured since 2016. Its patented StarSense sky recognition technology, powered by a Lost in Space Algorithm (LISA) similar to the ones used by satellites, outperforms the standard reliance on a smartphone's gyros and accelerometers, providing unparalleled accuracy in determining the telescope's orientation.
Unleash the full potential of your smartphone and embark on a guided tour of the night sky, no prior telescope experience required. The StarSense Explorer app generates a personalized list of the best celestial objects to view based on your specific location and time, allowing you to explore planets, brighter nebulae, galaxies, star clusters, and even fainter deep-sky objects.
The manual altazimuth mount with smooth, dual-axis slow-motion controls makes it easy to follow the on-screen directions, while the high-quality 130mm Newtonian reflector telescope offers impressive light-gathering capabilities to reveal stunning details of the Moon, planets, and deep-sky wonders like the Orion Nebula, Andromeda Galaxy, and Pleiades Open Star Cluster.
Buy with confidence, as the StarSense Explorer comes backed by Celestron's 2-year US warranty and unlimited support from their team of US-based experts. Experience the future of manual telescopes and let your smartphone be your guide to the wonders of the night sky.
