To assist in the star alignment, the NexStar also uses a lightweight StarPointer Finderscope - a quick and easy way to point your telescope exactly to the desired object in the sky, like having a laser pointer that you can shine directly onto the night sky, and Unlike previous entry-level computerized telescopes, the SLT series features flash upgradeable hand controls and GPS compatibility.

Powered by 8 AA user supplied batteries or an optional AC adapter , the NexStar’s are highly portable and feature an ergonomically-designed hand control, allowing users the  freedom to remove it from its holder for remote use or leave it cradled for hands-free operation. Its computerized system lets you select the object catalog, change the slew speed, view fascinating information about an object, or simply know if a desired object is visible in the sky.
