Four auxiliary ports accommodate Celestron accessories such as StarSense AutoAlign or SkySync GPS, while ergonomically-positioned carry handles and large altitude-azimuth axis clutch knobs permit easy operation, even with gloved hands. The mount has an internal rechargeable lithium-ion battery for cable-free use and sports a USB charge port for your phone or tablet. If you do not have a smartphone or tablet, you can still drive the instrument with the supplied upgradeable NexStar+ hand controller.
A new single-arm fork mount is controlled wirelessly via Celestron’s free SkyPortal app for Android and iOS devices. The Evolution range comprises three Fastar-compatible SCT models of 150mm (6-inch), 200mm (8-inch) and 235mm (9.25-inch) apertures with StarBright XLT optical coatings at f/10. Now, a decade and a half later, the lineage continues with the NexStar Evolution - the world’s first SCT with fully integrated WiFi control, seeking to define a new benchmark for GOTO telescopes. It is hard to believe that almost 16 years have elapsed since Celestron’s venerable NexStar series burst upon the astronomy scene with a 127mm (five-inch) Schmidt-Cassegrain (SCT) mounted on a radically designed single-arm GOTO mount. Fastar enables you to replace the secondary mirror with corrective optics, then image with a CCD camera at the prime f/2 focus. Note the large orange alt-az clutch knobs for easy operation with gloved hands and the Fastar-compatible optical tube. If you don’t have a smart ‘phone or tablet, you can still drive the ‘scope with the supplied NexStar+ hand controller shown. The mount of all Celestron NexStar Evolution ‘scopes can be controlled and wirelessly configured via Celestron’s free SkyPortal app.
