The first combination Bluetooth and USB connectivity solution for the astronomy enthusiast!

"The BlueStar is a welcome turnkey solution to wireless control with laptop computers. It makes controlling the scope that much easier, with no intervening wires to trip or tangle in the dark. Once you use the BlueStar, you won't go back to wired astronomy again." (Sky & Telescope, March 2007)
