QuestionAre galaxies viewable if not what is the farthest someone can see?
Asked 4 years ago by Lauren.
- Answer Yes, faint galaxies are visible through the StarSense Explorer LT 114AZ telescope. However, they are difficult to see from the city due to light pollution. Galaxies such as Andromeda, the Whirlpool, M81 & M82, will reveal themselves nicely from a dark sky site away from city lights.

QuestionI have a Samsung Galaxy smartphone, can I use it to take pictures or do I need to purchase an adapter in order to take pictures?
Asked 4 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Sorry we have an iPhone and although my granddaughter is able to attach it, pictures are not transfered from the lens; its ony to guide you to a specific star/planet. With the app they provide you, you can direct the lens to the appropriate star / planet and on the phone screen it tells you which you are looking at. I would reach out to the manufacture; my son did place his cannon to the lens viewer and was able to take a picture of the moon, without using his larger lens on the camara.

QuestionDo I need a WiFi connection or LTE connection for the phone star phone app to work?
Asked 5 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer The app needs GPS, and needs full access to your phone. I believe it uses the GPS to figure out your location, I dont think it uses the wifi for the app itself. The app is pretty large so I would download and activate the software on wifi.

Questioncan this work during daytime
Asked 5 years ago by katy.
- Answer Short answer to this is yes, it works during daytime. You actually have to set it up (alignment) during the daytime and while you are doing this you can see how it works as a daytime telescope - looking at distant buildings for example. It's actually pretty cool for that.

QuestionQuestionWould this be good for a rifle spotting scope at 300-500 yards?
Asked 4 years ago by carnyman.
- Answer At 300 yards, a bullet hole 8mm in diameter would have an angular size of 0° 0' 6.0". At 500 yards, it would be 0° 0' 3.6". The theoretical resolution limit for a scope of 114mm aperture is 1.22 arc seconds in perfect conditions. Theoretically, you could see the bullet hole, but only with a telescope in perfect collimation and in perfect isothermal conditions.

QuestionWith StarSense 130 mm using eyepieces of 10mm (65x) and 25mm (26x) magnification, how do we achieve higher magnifications for viewing? Specs report up to 307x magnification. Does higher level magnification require barlow lens and/or additional eyepieces?
Asked 4 years ago by 45.
- Answer Yes, purchasing a Barlow 2x will double magnification of included eye pieces. Celestron sells Barlow separately, and in various kits with additional eyepieces, filters, etc. Be sure to get matching 1.25” Barlow, eyepieces.
