Using the Meade Etx: 100 Objects You Can Really See with the Mighty Etx

By Mike Weasner

Book Overview

The Meade ETX range of telescopes is the most stunningly successful ever for amateur astronomers. It is low-cost, has sold in its tens of thousands, and is available in almost every country of the world. Even the smallest computer-controlled ETX models (90mm) have a database of more than 12,000 objects to which the telescope can point automatically. Unfortunately not all these objects are actually visible to the eye when looking through the ETX Mike Weasner is a world expert on the ETX range, and describes the "best" 100 objects to start with, along with lots of hints and tips about using and looking after the telescope, to get the best possible results. Every ETX owner - and anyone thinking of buying an ETX - will want this book.
