After a short alignment procedure (i.e. turn the telescope on, press align. The camera in the SkyProdigy scans the sky, compares it against sky maps loaded in memory, and determines your location, time, and what stars, planets, etc. are in the sky. You wait until it says that it\'s ready, and tell it to find any star available in the sky, or any planet, or the moon, or any deep space object i.e. M32, Great Nebula in Orion, Seven sisters, etc. It\'s almost foolproof. It knows where you are, what time it is, and what\'s in the sky. Buyer to pay $24.95 shipping in the CONUS. I won\'t ship out of the country!
