    This is a great gadget....I've owned one for a couple of years. We take it with us when we go camping and do some star gazing...it identifies what you are looking at, or will find what you want to see.

    You can also get a little speaker that connects to it that describes the planet or star or star system to everyone in the group, plus you can get SD cards that give you a "tour" of the night sky.

    The only negative is that it drains batteries pretty fast, thus I use Enloop AA batteries in the one we have. Decent price here.
