Until now, the stargazer's two biggest challenges to
enjoying the night sky have been aligning their telescope and finding objects.
Meade’s new ETX Premier Edition eliminates these two challenges and makes
astronomy as easy as pushing a button – right out of the box. Want to see a
hard-to-find deep space galaxy? Simply push a button. The same goes for planets,
stars, nebulae and more. Just pick an object you want to observe, press a
button, and then AutoStar® will automatically point your telescope and put it
right in your eyepiece.
Don't know what you want to see this evening? Go to the "Tonight's Best™"
tour in your AutoStar. It automatically selects the best objects in the sky for
that particular time and location (from its database of over 30,000 celestial
objects). All you need is a clear night, a dark sky and a little curiosity.
Whether you already know the sky by heart, or are just beginning your journey of
discovery, your Meade ETX-Premier Edition will take you where you want to go.
Astronomy has never been so fun and rewarding.
Meade's new ETX-Premier Edition automatically levels your
telescope, points it to North and sets the time. You just enter your location or
zip code. After your ETX completes its patented Level North automatic alignment
procedure it will point to the first alignment star. Use the new wide-field
SmartFinder to center the red dot over the alignment stars for ultra-precise
pointing accuracy. It’s that easy.
