## What is Star Hop Trainer Pro?

Helps build the skill of star hopping, which is finding targets in the sky by using star patterns to move from a bright star to the intended target.

Nothing was more frustrating than having a new telescope and spending an hour trying to find an object and then having it cloudy for 3 weeks afterwards!   Practice your star hopping skills during the day so that you have more quality time with your telescope on those rare clear nights!
