Celestron SkyScout handheld star finder

Another product, that’ll bring down the stars at your feet, to be showcased at CES is Celestron SkyScout. The first portable handheld viewing device uses embedded GPS and gravitational/magnetic field sensors to downsize the exact projections of the desired target with respect to the Earth. Download live shuttle launches by connecting it to your PC through a USB.



Striking Features:



‘Tonight’s Must-See List’ - The SkyScout automatically spills out the 10 must-see celestial objects that night as per user’s location.



‘Constellation Lessons’ - Offers complete information with respect to a particular constellation.



‘Updatable Software and Data’ - Watch live celestial events like shuttle launches and can even download it to your PC through a USB.



‘SkyTour Content Cards’ - SD card slot for additional contents on Astronomy and other related topics.



Fix its gaze at any star and it’ll match it with its database of more than 6000 objects. Weighing less than 16 ounces, it’s a real treat for stargazers.



It’s true, as Celestron puts it: ‘The sky will not look the same’
