With the invention of the telescope, it became possible to peer closer at the stars.
With telescopes, we discovered nebulae, galaxies, and planets.
We learned about the universe and our solar system.
By taking long exposures you could get views that simply cant be recreated by peering down a telescope eyepiece.
Even cameras attached to telescopes are affected, processing is needed to remove the noise of light pollution.
By computerising the camera system, the processing of the image can be automated.
you might also use automation to specifically point the telescope at a huge range of night sky objects.
The telescope has an external 10000mAh battery that can power it for 5 hours of use.
Its also somewhat portable, weighing 11.2kg.
An integrated battery can provide 10 hours of operation.
Once aligned you could control the telescope via your phone or the keypad.
There is a database of the locations of more than 40000 objects.
The movement speed can be adjusted for fine adjustment or large movements.
The stand has been designed to double as an accessory tray for spare lenses and filters.
Its not particularly portable, being large and heavy.
It also doesnt come with any included camera for those interested in astrophotography.
The AudioStar controller helps to make positioning and aligning the telescope a simple but manual process.
Annoyingly, only a single lens is included, it would have been nice to see more than that.
Additionally, the 8 C batteries or external 12V power supply are not included.
Both the eyepiece and the app allow for live viewing of the stacked images.
