Entry Description

StarSense Explorer telescopes combine the simplicity of a manual telescope with the power of a smartphone. Simply place your phone into the dock, launch the app, select an object, and let the patent-pending technology show you exactly where you need to point the telescope – just follow the on-screen arrows until the crosshairs turn green and voilà! While observing, the user can also learn about all celestial objects via the app’s audio and visual presentations. The app also functions as a time-saving tool by offering a comprehensive list of which celestial objects to best view each day.
