The telescope is a push-to manual telescope, not computerized, so you may ask why there's a smartphone adapter built-in to the Celestron 114AZ-SR? So you can take your own astrophotographs, of course. Line it up on the adapter and your smartphone turns the 114AZ-SR telescope into an astro camera ready to photograph the heavens.

With that smartphone, you also get free access to the SkyPortal mobile app and Starry Night software that gives information of over 36,000 celestial objects in the night sky. So whether you're brushing up on old knowledge, want to learn something new while you stargaze or are simply starting out for the first time this telescope and bundle should be able to open up a new part of the cosmos to you.

It should take just a few minutes to set up this telescope and at just under 9 lbs in weight, it won't ache your arm when you're taking it to a nearby dark sky spot, either.
