Meade ETX-90EC Astro
For the casual or beginning observer, the
Meade ETX-90EC may be all the telescope
ever required. Or, for the advanced
astronomer who already owns a larger instru-
ment, the ETX-90EC is the perfect ultra-
portable, diffraction-limited field telescope.

Meade LX200 GPS
Diffraction-limited Schmidt-Cassegrain and
Maksutov Cassegrain optics, assembled into
advanced electro-mechanical systems. The
large apertures of Meade LX-Series cata-
dioptric (mirror-lens) telescopes permit the
use of higher observing magnifications than is
the case with smaller instruments, and because of the
telescopes' greatly increased resolution and resolving
power, extremely fine celestial detail may be observed
and photographed.

Meade 8” LX90
The LX90 is the first full-capability, computer-controlled
8" Schmidt- Cassegrain ever offered in its price range.
The LX90 Schmidt-Cassegrain is not only a high-resolution
visual observing instrument but also is fully qualified for the
more advanced areas of astronomy, including long-exposure
CCD-imaging and astrophotography. Speci

Meade ETX-70AT
All of the major planets except Pluto are easily
observable through the ETX-70AT. The Autostar
#494 is included as standard equipment; the
controller permits the automatic location of over
1400 celestial objects, including all of the following
objects located in the telescope's on board
database.

Free aluminum 882 tripod with case
Completely re-engineered and redesigned,
Meade DS-2000 telescopes provide
extremely smooth motions in both altitude
and azimuth, and, most importantly,
include a fully integrated Autostar control
system as standard equipment. Oversize
bearings on both telescope axes of all models negate
the imprecision found universally, virtually without
exception, on competing models.

Meade LXD55 Achromatic Refractor
The Achromatic Refractor offers the clear,
unobstructed lens aperture of a classic
refracting telescope with the convenience
and usability of Autostar control and
advanced mountings. Each complete telescope
includes a 8 x 50mm achromatic viewfinder; metal
rack-and-pinion focuser with eyepiece holders for both
1.25" and 2" eyepieces; Series 4000 Super Plossl 26mm
eyepiece; diagonal prism. The variable-height field tripod
with accessory shelf is included. Autostar dual-axis
control system with digital readout display; 9-speed
drive controls; 30,223-object celestial software
library and automatic GO TO object-locating.

Meade LXD 55 Schmidt-Newtonian
Designed to operate at an extremely low focal
ratio, the LXD55 Schmidt-Newtonian displays
very wide, well corrected fields of view with the
convenience and usability of Autostar control
and advanced mountings. The result is a user-
friendly telescope with brilliant, rich-field imaging of
nebulae, galaxies and star clusters, and remarkably fast
speeds for astrophotography or CCD imaging. LXD55
diffraction-limited optics yield pinpoint stellar images over
extremely wide fields, while reducing coma – an optical
condition of low focal ratios that can degrade an
image – by one-half. Variable-height field tripod with
accessory shelf included. Autostar dual-axis control
system with digital readout display; 9-speed drive
controls; 30,223-object celestial software library
and automatic GO TO object-locating.
