The
largest aperture of the GPS line, The NexStar 11GPS Schmidt-Cassegrain
telescope,
has the most lightgathering power and has a limiting magnitude
of nearly 15. The NexStar 11 GPS takes full advantage of its
vast database of thousands of NGC and Abell galaxies as well
as delivering a new level of detail to all your favorite deep
sky objects.
With sophisticated software
features like Hibernate function, the NexStar can maintain
its star alignment night after night without needing to be
re-aligned, making it an ideal instrument for
a permanent observatory facility.
