New from iOptron -- The Solar 60

TM

 computerized telescope system! Now your family or 

classroom can see sun spots right on a computer screen. The computerized telescope locates 
and auto-tracks to keep the sun (or moon, planets, and other celestial objects) in view. This is 
an ideal system to capture video or still photos of the sun spots and their movements. Set it up 
at home or school and everyone can see the daily changes in the sun spots. The Solar 60

TM

 

comes with a threaded solar filter to switch to nightime viewing.  

 
Alt-Azimuth Mount– The Cube™ 

The SmartStar

® 

Solar 60

TM

 GOTO telescope comes with our patented Alt-Azimuth Mount, a.k.a. 

The Cube™. This compact mount design is one of the most functional and flexible units on the 
market. Sky & Telescope magazine named it “Hot Product 2008”. Both axis motors are built into 
a small single unit with optical encoders that provide accurate GOTO and tracking. The mount is 
universally compatible with all telescopes using a dovetail connector plate. With an optional DC 
adaptor you can plug your telescope mount into your car if you’re camping or at any other 
remote location. 

 

The GoToNova

®

 hand controller is much easier to use than other similar products. The hand 

controller is more intuitive with menu categories better organized. It also has a larger LCD 
screen with more lines of content compared to others. Using the hand controller and its large 
LCD screen you can quickly set up your telescope and select where you want to go. 

 

The control system also allows you to slew the telescope at 5 different drive speeds, keeping 
the object within the telescope’s viewfinder for as long as you wish.  

 

The revolutionary GoToNova

®

 computerized control system is by far the most technologically 

advanced automated tracking system available on the market today.  With a database of 5,000+ 
celestial objects including all of the more famous galaxies, nebulae, star clusters — not to 
mention the planets — you’ll be able to enjoy star gazing with the simple push of a button.  

 

Made with the most durable glass filter on the market, this system allows you to see the solar 
photosphere with outstanding detail. Watch sunspots change from day to day. Follow these 
magnetic giants as they rotate across the disk of the sun, it’s truly an amazing view! The thread-
on glass solar filter assures eye safety during the observation, yet easy to remove for terrestrial 
and nighttime viewing. It also serves as a lens cap.
