Sky-Watcher Star Discovery P150i WiFi GoTo Telescope is a highly capable all-rounder for the observation of the Moon, bright planets, nebulae, galaxies and star clusters. It features an extremely useful 150mm light gathering aperture, a superb parabolic primary mirror and is easy to carry and transport.
Sky-Watcher Star Discovery P150i WiFi GoTo is controlled wirelessly with your Smartphone or Tablet, using the free SynScan App for iOS or Android. The integrated Synscan WiFi module creates its very own WiFi network, so the mount can be used anywhere, without any reliance on other WiFi or mobile networks. After entering your coordinates into the App and following a simple alignment procedure, you are ready to explore the universe using the App's intuitive touchscreen menu.
The Star Discovery P150i WiFi GoTo and SynScan App provides full computerised GoTo control, allowing the telescope to be automatically slewed to any one of the objects in the App's extensive database of 10,000+ celestial objects. Incorporates Sky-Watcher's Freedom-Find patented Dual-Encoder Technology, which allows the telescope to be moved manually in either axis without the mount losing its positional information. This gives the user enormous freedom, convenience and flexibility during observational sessions.

SKY-WATCHER DELUXE MIRROR COATINGS
Most reflectors today usually have a coat of aluminium as the mirror surface and then an overcoat of silicon monoxide or silicon dioxide to protect it. Silicon dioxide produces a much more durable coat than silicon monoxide but requires specialized equipment to apply it and is therefore more expensive. Protection is needed, because in most reflectors, the mirror is open to the elements and deterioration of the reflective layer reduces the resolution of the telescope. ALL Sky-Watcher reflectors are Multi-Coated with Silicon Dioxide as standard for Optimum Durability and Long Term Performance.
