Sky-Watcher Solarquest Sun GT Mount with tripod
Product Features
The Sky-Watcher SolarQuest is a lightweight, motorized solar tracking mount designed to make solar observing simple and enjoyable. With no prior alignment required, SolarQuest uses its patented HelioFind™ solar finder and built-in GPS to automatically level, calculate position, and lock onto the Sun - all at the push of a button. Once aligned, the mount continuously tracks the Sun for extended observing sessions with ease.
Perfect for solar eclipse enthusiasts, astronomy educators, or anyone who wants to safely study our closest star, SolarQuest takes the hassle out of solar viewing and makes it accessible anytime the Sun is shining.
Tired of waiting until nightfall to observe the sky? The SolarQuest makes daytime astronomy exciting - whether you’re tracking sunspots, planetary transits, or even the passage of the ISS across the Sun. Eclipse chasers will love its portable, automatic setup, and science classrooms will appreciate its ability to bring real-time solar activity into lessons.
