SkyAlign - the simplest, fastest & most beginner friendly alignment method available on any computerised telescope.Celestron wireless dongle so I don’t need to use the hand controller. Use the free sky portal android app to control the scope. I get perfect alignment using this. Chris - your mags will be x26 and x33 - not very much for planetary work. (You normally get something like a 10 and a 25, I think. A 10mm would give you x65 - still not much for a short focal length 'scope.) Mars will look very, very small at those mags - you need longer focal length eyepieces. Jupiter will look a little better/bigger with what you have. What it does is allow you to control the telescope wirelessly. The database contains over 100,000 objects, and the app’s interface is intuitive and user-friendly. You can also point your device to the sky and see a real-time projection of the objects in the sky.
