New ::::::: MEADE ETX-80AT 80mm refractor with GOTO | ||
| The ETX-80AT is a fully automated GO TO telescope with over 1400 of the sky's best celestial objects in it's computer database. The large 80mm objective Lens delivers bright, high definition images of Celestial and terrestrial objects. The revolutionary Meade Autostar system facilitates fully automatic astronomical object-location. Just select the object shown on the Autostar display, press GO TO, and the telescope automatically moves to the object and places it in the telescopic field of view! Autostar also tracks the object automatically, compensating for the earth’s rotation. Specifications: Large 80mm diameter Achromatic Refractor, 400mm focal length (f/5) objective lens, fork mounted altazimuth refractor with built-in motor drive, and Autostar hand controller. Features a built-in barlow lens that can be flipped into the optical path for more power, and a built-in time chip for precise factory-set time. Accessories include tripod with carry bag, two 1.25" premium SP eyepieces and bubble level/compass for precise alignment. Blue tube. Requires six (user-supplied) AA-size batteries. | |
