The invention is different from the prior art full-automatic astronomical telescope system, after the user inputs the star finding indication, the control system 13 interacts with the user, detects the position change of the lens cone 11 at any time, calculates the adjusting step from the changed position of the lens cone 11 to the position of the lens cone 11 capable of observing the target star, and provides the adjusting indication for the user.

The basic principle of the invention of superimposing an image indication into the optical path of a user viewing a star will be described below with reference to fig. 2.
Fig. 2 is a schematic view of a light combining system of the astronomical telescope system according to the present invention. In fig. 2, the lens barrel 11 is schematically shown, and an eyepiece 112 for observation is provided. The microdisplay 111 is disposed inside the lens barrel 11 for outputting an image indication. The lens barrel 11 is further provided with a light combining element 113, and the light combining element 113 is used for superposing light entering from one end of the lens barrel 11 facing the observation star and an image instruction output by the micro display 111, and finally outputting the light to the ocular 112 to be observed by a user from the ocular 112. The end of the lens barrel 11 facing the observation star is usually installed with an objective lens, when the astronomical telescope 10 is used to observe the star, the starry sky in the observation field is usually presented as an enlarged optical image 114, and at this time, the user can simultaneously observe the superimposed starry sky optical image 114 and the image indication output by the microdisplay 111 through the eyepiece 112. Therefore, through the added image indication, the user can easily and quickly find the star to be observed, and simultaneously can learn and master the use of the astronomical telescope through the operation of the astronomical telescope.

An interactive astronomical telescope rotation control method according to claim 13, wherein image indications are superimposed via respective optical path systems into the optical path of a user viewing stars through the astronomical telescope, so that said images and optical images of the viewing stars of the astronomical telescope can be viewed together by the user through the lens barrel.
16. The interactive astronomical telescope rotation control method according to claim 14 or 15, wherein between steps b and c, further comprising the step of selecting a star finding mode by a user, said star finding mode comprising: finding a star according to the rotation quantity of the longitude and latitude; finding stars according to paths passing through different stars; the stars are found according to the trajectory from the starting star to the target star.
17. An interactive astronomical telescope rotation control method according to claim 14 or 15, wherein the image indication is provided in one of the following modes: finding a star according to the rotation quantity of the longitude and latitude; finding stars according to paths passing through different stars; the stars are found according to the trajectory from the starting star to the target star.
18. An interactive method of controlling rotation of an astronomical telescope according to claim 16 or 17, wherein when finding a star according to the rotation amount of latitude and longitude, a progress indication image is provided when the user adjusts the telescope according to the image indication, the progress indication indicating the difference between the rotation amount of the user and the rotation amount to be adjusted for the user to adjust the adjustment of the astronomical telescope.
19. An interactive method of astronomical telescope rotation control according to claim 16 or 17, wherein the star names and associated astronomical knowledge are also provided when finding stars according to the path through different stars.
20. An interactive astronomical telescope rotation control method as set forth in claim 16 or 17, wherein when finding a star according to a trajectory from a start star to an end star, a trajectory line image and an icon indicating a deviation of a current position from the trajectory line are further provided.
21. An interactive astronomical telescope rotation control method according to claim 14, wherein said method further comprises superimposing an astronomical image or star map stored in an astronomical database comprised by or connected to the astronomical telescope corresponding to the barrel direction of the astronomical telescope into the optical path of said astronomical telescope observation star for the user to selectively see the actual star optical image, the stored astronomical image or star map and other image indication in combination.
