Description:

Celestron’s latest planetarium app, SkyPortal, offers a comprehensive astronomy suite that provides a unique and immersive experience of the night sky. With a vast database that includes the Solar System, 120,000 stars, over 200 star clusters, nebulae, galaxies, and a variety of asteroids, comets, and satellites - including the ISS - SkyPortal provides everything you need to explore the wonders of the universe in a captivating way.

The app offers a range of impressive features that allow users to simulate the night sky and plan their stargazing sessions. By creating a custom list of objects based on their specific time and location, users can effectively optimize their observing experience. Furthermore, SkyPortal provides valuable information about celestial events such as the visibility of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, transits, eclipses, and more, allowing users to anticipate and plan their observations accordingly.

With the ability to simulate the night sky from any location on Earth up to 100 years in the past or future, SkyPortal ensures a versatile and dynamic stargazing experience. Its Compass Mode, when used with compatible devices, enables users to simply hold up their device to the sky for a real-time synchronized display of celestial objects - including star names, constellations, planets, nebulae, and galaxies. This feature adds an interactive element to stargazing sessions, enhancing engagement and understanding of the night sky.

SkyPortal also offers advanced control capabilities for compatible Celestron WiFi telescopes. With sophisticated mount modeling for quick and accurate go-to alignment, users can effortlessly control their telescopes and view objects with remarkable precision. The app's time controls allow users to animate transits, conjunctions, eclipses, and other celestial events, further enhancing their exploration of the night sky.

In addition to these impressive simulation and control features, SkyPortal also prioritizes user experience. The app includes a Night Vision mode, which helps preserve users' eyesight when stargazing in the dark. Additionally, SkyPortal offers a wealth of knowledge about the heavens, including object descriptions that explore the history, mythology, and science behind celestial phenomena. A vast collection of astronomical photographs and NASA spacecraft images further enriches the user's understanding and appreciation of the universe.

One of the highlights of SkyPortal is its seamless integration with compatible Celestron WiFi telescopes. By pairing the app with a telescope and utilizing Celestron’s patented SkyAlign™ technology, users can quickly and easily align their telescopes for precise object tracking. With a simple tap on any desired object within the app, users can effortlessly center it in the telescope's eyepiece, enabling them to observe the wonders of the universe with exceptional clarity.

What sets SkyPortal apart from other telescope control systems is its advanced mount modeling, which ensures superior pointing accuracy. By incorporating sophisticated technology into its alignment process, SkyPortal surpasses other systems that rely solely on dedicated computers.
