Tip of the Week
Telescopes with GPS tracking systems usually feature something that is called a GOTO mount. A GOTO telescope mount is a computerized, motorized mount that adjusts the position of the telescope to automatically locate celestial bodies. A GOTO mount usually functions by means of a handheld device with pre-loaded positions of of celestial bodies, and the mount itself must be calibrated according to the telescope's location. A GOTO mount that has been coupled with a GPS device receives radio waves from satellites to automatically calculate the date, time, and location of the telescope in order to allow for the most precise GOTO synchronization.
