The Celestron Skyscout is a homerun!!

Just a few minutes out of the box and I was "shooting" stars and Jupiter. The quick user guide made it as simple as ABC. This is an ideal gift for anyone interested in the night sky or science in general. Bravo Celestron!

Once the SkyScout has a good GPS lock it will also give you the compass bearing to Terrestrial objects, pretty handy sometimes!! Adorama was SUPER to work with!!
