The unique Celestron Sky Scout was chosen the "Best of Innovations" in the personal electronics category at the 2006 International Consumer Electronics Show in January. It was chosen the best of all the thousands of new products introduced by the major electronics manufacturers from around the world. The Sky Scout was also named an "Editor’s Choice" by Popular Mechanics magazine at the same electronics industry show, and was featured in USA Today as one of the outstanding new products at the show. The Sky Scout also won the PC Magazine "Last Gadget Standing" award. It was named the new product that is "destined to stand the test of time and become a long time player in the industry." To win this award, voted on live by industry professionals at the CES, the Sky Scout beat out new and innovative products from Nikon, XM Satellite Radio, Pioneer, Palm, Logitech, Epson, Samsung, and others. It joins past winners from such well-known companies as Dell and OnStar. And in the May issue of Reader’s Digest Magazine that named the 100 best things in America, the Celestron Sky Scout was named the "Best Star Finder."
The Celestron Sky Scout is a handheld, portable, non-magnifying celestial viewing device that can instantly identify and/or locate any of the more than 6,000 celestial objects visible to the naked eye. It transforms the night sky into a personal planetarium for stargazers, families, students, and astronomers alike. It makes learning the stories of the sky – and finding your way around the sky – easier than ever before.
