magine every movement of your telescope being represented against a realistic star field on the screen of your personal computer! Simply type the name or catalog number of any object you wish to see, and the SGT-MAX not only guides you to it, it even shows your progress against the stars! The real-time link to your telescope makes finding any of thousands, or even millions of objects, a breeze. Combining it with a compatible Go-To telescope (such as the Meade LX200) and CCD imaging software will give you a fully automated imaging system. It should be noted that without a compatible Go-To telescope, the SGT system will guide you in a manner similar to the NGC system in which you must manually move the telescope. The Software Guided Telescope is a combination of two parts, Hardware and Software. You will need both parts for a functioning system. We sell TheSky software but many others will work with our hardware.
