Question about Stellarium and Nexstar 6e


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, just returning to astronomy after a very long time. Now have a Nextstar 6SE and a list of objects I interested in seeing. One pain with the Nextstar is having to set the location and time, does anyone know if I can use software, such as Stellarium, to send location and time to the telescope?

Not as far as I know, but if you get a wifi module and control it from a tablet etc with GPS, that might work (but don't quote me or ask me how), or you can buy a Celestron GPS module, but that is expensive.

You only have to set the location once, unless you plan to travel around.
