With Celestron'''s Revolutionary SkyAlign technology, aligning your Celestron 90SLT is easier and faster than ever. Simply input the date, time and your location (the CPC models have built-in GPS that does this for you) and then align the Celestron Telescope to three bright stars of your choosing. You do not need to know the names of the stars -- you could even pick the moon or bright planets! The NexStar Computer system will automatically figure out which stars were chosen and then align the telescope. There is no need to point the telescope North or to level the optical tube - the initial position of the telescope is irrelevant. This makes for a fast and very easy method for aligning the Celestron Telescope.
