Celestron has reinvented the manual telescope with StarSense Explorerthe first telescope that uses your smartphone to analyze the night sky and calculate its position in real time. StarSense Explorer is ideal for beginners thanks to the apps user-friendly interface and detailed tutorials. Its like having your own personal tour guide of the night sky.Dock, Launch, ExploreLeave complicated star charts, imprecise planetarium apps, and computerized mounts behind. With StarSense Explorer, locating objects has never been easier, faster, or more accurate. Within minutes of setting up the telescope, youll be navigating the sky with confidence. Simply place your phone in the unique StarSense dock and launch the StarSense Explorer app. After aligning your phone to the telescopes optics (a quick, 2-minute procedure), StarSense Explorer generates a list of celestial objects currently visible. Make your selection and arrows appear onscreen, guiding you as you to move the telescope. When the object is ready to view, the bullseye turns green.Smartphone CompatibilityStarSense Explorer works with most modern smartphones, including iPhone 6 and up and most devices running Android 7.1.2 or later manufactured since 2016. For a complete compatibility list, click here.Patent-Pending StarSense Sky Recognition TechnologyStarSense Explorer uses patent-pending technology and your smartphone to determine exactly where the telescope is pointed in the night sky. A Lost in Space Algorithm (LISA), like the ones satellites use in orbit to correctly reorient themselves, helps the app match star patterns it detects overhead to its internal database.While other astronomy apps may claim that they can help you find objects, they rely exclusively on the phones gyros and accelerometers, which arent as accurate as LISA technology. No other app can accurately tell you when your target is visible in the eyepiece.High Quality Altazimuth Mount with Slow Motion ControlAn ultra-stable altazimuth mount provides a sturdy foundation for StarSense Explorer DX. Slip clutches and geared slow motion controls in both axes help you move the telescope smoothly and zero in your target. As celestial objects appear to drift across the night sky, youll be able to follow them with just a turn of the knobs. Its all anchored by an adjustable, full-height tripod.Dazzling Views with High Quality OpticsWith a large 102mm (4in) objective lens, this telescope has enough light gathering ability to bring out impressive detail in celestial objects. You can expect sharp, bright views of Jupiters four Galilean moons, its cloud bands and Great Red Spot, the rings of Saturn, the trapezium in the Orion Nebula, and beautiful Pleaides Open Star Cluster. Celestrons XLT optical coatings improve light transmission, enhancing the views even more.Perfect for the City or Dark Sky SitesEven if you live in a light polluted city location, StarSense Explorer is advanced enough to be able to pick out Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, the Orion Nebula, double stars, and a few more of the most famous celestial objects.But if you can take the telescope to an even slightly darker location, more objects will become visible. With this 4in refractor and relatively dark skies, the Andromeda Galaxy, Hercules Open Star Cluster, and so many more are easily within your reach.The entire telescope kit weighs just 14.2 pounds, so its perfectly portable and easy to bring on your next camping trip or to a remote observing site.Everything You Need to Observe ImmediatelyWhen you unbox your new StarSense Explorer DX, youll find:102mm refractor optical tubeStarSense dock for your smartphoneLow powered (25mm) and high powered (10mm) eyepiece90-degree erect image diagonalStarPointer red dot finderscope, perfect for using the telescope during the day or without the StarSense Explorer appAltazimuth mount with slow motion controlsFull-height tripod with an accessory tray to keep you organized
