Meade ETX 80AT

Meade ETX80AT

Now even the most novice amateur astronomer can locate and explore the planets, galaxies, and nebulae, as well as star clusters, asteroids, and comets, all at the push of a button. Because, more than any other telescope, the Meade ETX has revolutionized amateur astronomy. Since it was introduced in 1996 it has become the standard by which others are judged, combining low price with optical excellence, a solid mounting, and...computerized 'GO TO' facilities. Meade ETX astro scopes bring the full range of celestial images to your eye with astonishing levels of clarity, resolution, and definition.

All of the major planets except Pluto are easily observable through the ETX-80AT. Study Saturn and its ring system; the primary cloud belts of Jupiter as well as its four major satellites; the Moonlike phases of Mercury and Venus; prominent features on Mars; the starlike images of the distant planets Uranus and Neptune. The Moon stands out in stark, almost three-dimensional detail - craters, mountain ranges, and fault lines. In our galaxy the telescope displays hundreds of nebulae, star clusters, double and multiple stars
