As the SkyPortal Wifi Module slews your telescope to an object, you can listen to hundreds of included audio descriptions on your device, enriching your understanding of the universe with information on the history, mythology, and key features of the most popular celestial objects.
The SkyPortal Wifi Module also includes the Sky Tour feature, which displays a list of the best objects to view based on your exact time and location. There's no need to input GPS coordinates or set the time and date, as SkyPortal WiFi takes this information directly from your device.
The SkyPortal Wifi Module is powered by Celestron's brand new planetarium app, SkyPortal. Available free on the Apple App Store and Google Play, SkyPortal offers an intuitive user interface with a robust database of more than 100,000 celestial objects.
