Telescope — Celestron
use "StarSense" technology to plate-solve —aligning the telescope by taking an image of the sky and comparing it to an internal database [8, 24].
The Celestron Telescope: Pioneering Amateur Astronomy Since its founding in the 1960s, has become a cornerstone of the amateur astronomy community, transforming stargazing from a niche academic pursuit into a popular global hobby. Headquartered in Torrance, California, the company is now a subsidiary of the Synta Technology Corporation of Taiwan [11, 13]. Known for its high-quality optics and pioneering "GoTo" computer technology, Celestron telescopes offer a range of options suitable for everyone from absolute beginners to professional-level astrophotographers [24, 27, 34].

High-quality mirrors and lenses are designed to minimize spherical and achromatic aberrations , which can otherwise distort images or create false color-fringing around stars [12].
Newer series, such as the StarSense Explorer , allow users to dock their smartphones to the telescope. The app then uses the phone’s camera and GPS to guide the user to specific stars or planets [19, 31]. Choosing the Right Model
