Telescope Pack Celestron Astro Fi 6SC Wifi Schmidt Cassegrain with customized introductory course
IN TELESCOPIOMANIA WE OFFER YOU NOW TOGETHER WITH YOUR TELESCOPE, OUR PERSONALIZED COURSE OF INITIATION OF ASTRONOMY AND USE OF YOUR GOTO TELESCOPE.
The Astro Fi Schmidt Cassegrain 150mm, 6" Astro Fi telescope with fully multi-coated optics offers exceptional views of the Moon and planets, as well as bright deep space objects outside our solar system, such as the globular clusters surrounding the core of our galaxy.
To improve the ergonomics and styling that already advanced Celestron in its previous WiFi models, the Astro Fi incorporates a modern accessory tray that includes a rubberized area to house and protect a smartphone or small tablet.
The kit includes a red pointer finder, 2 Kellner eyepieces, and the diagonal prism.
Control your telescope via integrated WiFi using the app Celestron SkyPortal iPhone, iPad and Android devices has never been easier!
Celestron is not only changing the way we experience astronomy, it is also changing the way we interact with the night sky. The Astro Fi is a telescope whose full functions can be controlled with your smart phone or tablet using the app Celestron SkyPortal. Celestron SkyPortal replaces the traditional handheld telescope control knob for a 100% wireless experience. Just point your smart mobile device at the night sky. When you find an object you'd like to see, just touch the screen. Your Astro Fi telescope will automatically point to the object, while the screen displays information about it - it's never been more fun or easier to explore the universe! It's an innovative system that captures the imagination and arouses the curiosity of everyone, and especially motivates children because of the ease of operation and interaction with the sky.
The Astro Fi we offer at Telescopiomania creates its own wireless connection, so it can communicate with your mobile device, even in remote locations where WiFi or data networks are not available. In addition, setting up the telescope and getting you ready to observe is very quick and easy thanks to the award-winning SkyAlign technology from Celestron. You simply center three bright objects in the eyepiece (it doesn't matter if you don't know what they are), and the telescope calculates their position. It can even generate a tour of all the best celestial objects to see right then and there from your field of view. The mount incorporates two auxiliary ports so you can connect an additional remote or StarSense accessory to make stationing even easier.
The advantages of the Astro Fi's innovative WiFi technology are obvious, but it is the optics inside the telescope tube that makes this instrument a true Celestron. For more than 50 years, Celestron has led the optical technology industry to excellence and now brings that expertise to you in the Astro Fi models. With this telescope equipped with fully multi-coated optics you will get dazzling views of the craters of the Moon, the rings of Saturn, Jupiter's Great Red Spot, the Orion Nebula, the Hercules Globular Cluster and much more..
