NexStar Evolution 8 Telescope
Gone are the days of long, clunky telescopes that you had to manually point at every little thing in the sky you wanted to see close up — consumer telescopes have evolved, and there's no better evidence than the NexStar Evolution 8 Telescope. With an optical tube that's eight inches wide, it does the job of older, much larger telescopes, while its compatibility with iOS and Android apps takes all the guesswork out of finding stars, constellations, and planets. An onboard motor responds to everything you tell it to do through your phone or tablet, so all you have to do is stare up at the night sky.
