Celestron's popular NexStar series of entry-level telescopes has undergone a major overhaul. NexStar Evolution telescopes feature a completely new altazimuth mount with ultra-precise motors and worm gears on both axes.

The dual axis encoder system with large, comfortable knobs allows you to manually rotate the telescope without losing orientation to astronomical objects. The inaccuracy of searching and tracking objects has been radically reduced. The lightweight lithium-ion battery built into the mount, very efficient even in winter conditions, allows you to work in the field for 10 hours without the need to connect to the mains power supply and frees you from the trouble of tangled cables. You can add trouble-free cooperation with the Starsense AutoAlign system.

The biggest novelty in the new version of NexStar Evolution is the revolutionary way of controlling the telescope – wirelessly, via WiFi! Everything is done using a smartphone with the appropriate software, supplied by Celestron with the telescope. The software is rich in multimedia and allows for a realistic presentation of the appearance of the sky at any time.

Another interesting feature is the red illuminated accessory table. This table holds 3 x 1.25" eyepieces, 1 x 2" eyepiece and space for various small accessories, and interestingly, it can also be used with the tripod legs partially unfolded.

Evolution Series Features:

• built-in WiFi – the telescope does not require a classic Go-To controller on a cable. Simply install the included software on your smartphone or tablet to operate the telescope via a wireless network
• free Celestron software – allows you to obtain a realistic image of the sky for a given moment, and also has many advanced options – among others, it allows you to predict the moments of visibility of the Great Red Spot on Jupiter, determines the transits of the Callilean Moons, and for other objects – moments of eclipse, conjunctions, sunrises and sunsets. The program suggests the most interesting nebula objects to the observer. Additionally, many of the objects have extensive descriptions illustrated with beautiful photos
• internal lithium-ion battery with long service life - charged using an external charger. The battery guarantees 10 hours of continuous operation
• precisely made gears and modified engines - enable obtaining high precision of guidance. Worm gears are used both in the azimuth axis and in the height axis, which allows to minimize backlash. This is a great improvement in relation to the currently produced SE series
• skyAlign – a simple and quick method of aligning the telescope based on three bright stars in the sky
• NexStar+ controller included - although the telescope can be operated via WiFi, the NexStar+ controller, typically used in Celestron telescopes, has also been added for full functionality
• improved tripod – all tripod elements are made of metal, which significantly improves the load-bearing capacity and stability of the structure. The tripod legs have several markers that allow for easy leveling at different heights.
• quick assembly and disassembly – all elements are screwed using comfortable screws with large handles. The telescope can be assembled without using any tools in a very short time
• 4 AUX ports – allow you to connect additional devices to the Evolution mount. In particular, this port can be useful for connecting the StarSense system, which allows for automatic setting
• power supply included - the telescope has a universal mains power supply that allows operation at different supply voltages and with different types of plugs. Power supply parameters: 12V 2.1A
• accessory table – allows you to attach 3 x 1.25" eyepieces, 1 x 2" eyepiece, as well as other accessories. The table does not need to be dismantled when folding the tripod legs

Due to the portable nature of the set, it does not come with a power supply. The only accessory is a car power supply.
