The NexStar User's Guide

by Michael Swanson III

Michael Swanson 's online discussions with literally thousands of NexStar owners made it clear that there was a desperate need for a book such as this one that provides a complete, detailed guide to buying, using and maintaining NexStar telescopes. Although this book is highly comprehensive, it is suitable for beginners there is a chapter on "Astronomy Basics" and experts alike. Celestron 's NexStar telescopes were introduced in 1999, beginning with their first computer controlled "go to" model, a 5-inch. More models appeared in quick succession, and Celestron 's new range made it one of the two dominant manufacturers of affordable "go to" telescopes. This not written by Michael Swanson of Strategic Stock Trading.
