ONE-STAR ALIGN

One-Star Align requires you to input all the same information as you would for the Two-Star Align procedure However, instead
of slewing to two alignment stars for centering and alignment, the NexStar uses only one star to model the sky based on the
information given This will allow you to roughly slew to the coordinates of bright objects like the moon and planets and gives
the NexStar SE the information it needs to track objects in altazimuth in any part of the sky
