Celestron NexStar 8SE Computerized Telescope

Celestron NexStar 8SE Computerized Telescope combines portable Schmidt-Cassegrain optics with GoTo pointing for outreach nights and field campaigns.

In combat situations, Fleet decision makers are often faced with too much data and not enough useful information. The “Knowledge Wall” is an ONR-funded concept that uses commercial-off-the-shelf technology to display on a single wall several screens of information that address issues requiring the decision-makers’ attention. The wall is installed onboard the USS CORONADO, the Third Fleet Flag Ship currently visiting San Francisco for Fleet Week, October 6 through 10. The Knowledge Wall uses hardware of an IR-21 compliant workstation running Windows NT4.0 with dual Pentium-III, 750 MHz processors, one gigabyte of RAM, and two large capacity hard drives. The display itself is composed of 10, 21-inch Viewsonic G810 CRTs, and two SmartBoard rear-projection large screen displays with internal Proxima LX-2 LCD projectors.
