Item Description

CComes in good condition - no damage - 3 x sight lenses - 1 x 90 degree mirror - front cap - accessory tray and 8x AA battery power pack. COLLECTION ONLY FROM BURNLEY The Astro Fi 102 mm Maksutov-Cassegrain is a fully featured telescope that can be controlled with your smart phone or tablet using the free Celestron SkyPortal app. Celestron's SkyPortal app replaces the traditional telescope hand control for a 100% wireless experience. Just hold your smart device up to the night sky. When you find an object you'd like to view, tap the screen. Your Astro Fi telescope automatically slews to the object, while the screen displays information about it. It's never been more fun to explore the universe! The Astro Fi 102 creates its own wireless connection, so it can communicate with your device even in remote locations where Wi-Fi or cellular networks aren't available. Getting ready to observe is quick and painless thanks to Celestron's SkyAlign technology. Center any three bright objects in the eyepiece, and your telescope calculates its position. You can even generate a Sky Tour of all the best celestial objects to view based on your exact time and location.
