Celestron NexStar 5 i Telescope with Computerized Hand Control and NexRemote Telescope Control Software - 11034

A breakthrough in Celestron GoTo Telescopes design, Celestron NexStar 5 i Telescope 11034 features Schmidt-Cassegrain 5" Optical Tube with StarBright Multi-Coating, powerful 1,250mm focal length and f/10 focal ratio. Celestron NexStar 5i Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope 11034 is a fully automated Celestron GoTo Telescope. With features like AutoAlign Two-Star Alignment, a sky tour feature, a database of over 40,000 celestial objects and easy to use hand control, Celestron NexStar 5 i Schmidt Cassegrain Telescopes are the perfect combination of power and portability.

Celestron Auto Two-Star Align allows the user to input all the necessary time/site information needed to align Celestron Telescope. After choosing Auto Two Star Align, your Celestron NexStar will ask you to input first the local time and date, then it will ask for your location. Once this information is received, Celestron NexStar will prompt you to slew the Telescope and point at one known star in the sky. Celestron NexStar now has all the information it needs to choose a second alignment star that will assure the best possible alignment.

Starting March 2005 Celestron NexRemote Control Software comes with Celestron Nexstar 5 i Telescopes 11034 free of charge !!!!

Celestron NexRemote Telescope Control Software allows the user to control their Celestron Computerized Telescopes from their personal computer. Everything that is done using the Telescope 's hand control can now be done remotely from a PC or laptop. Celestron Nex Remote Software was developed for Celestron 's high-end Telescopes that use Celestron NexStar control system including Celestron NexStar "i" Series Telescopes, Celestron Advanced Series Telescopes, Celestron NexStar GPS Telescopes and Celestron CGE Telescopes .

Also NOW Celestron NexStar i Telescopes GoTo Computerized Hand Control 93962 comes standard with Celestron NexStat 5i Telescopes (Item #11034) and Celestron NexStat 8i Telescopes (Item #11022 & 11022-XLT) packages.
