Beschreibung

In 1996 Meade, the world's largest astronomical telescope manufacturer, introduced the ETX, a low-cost and genuinely portable instrument capable of results close to the theoretical limits of optical performance. Since then several different models have been introduced, most of them controlled by on-board computers that automatically point the telescope at objects selected from a database of 12,000. Unfortunately not all these objects are visible when looking through the ETX! (They are included because they can be imaged with special equipment.) Mike Weasner is a world expert on the ETX range, and describes the "best" 100 objects to start with, and offers hints and tips about using and looking after the telescope to get the best possible results.

Zusammenfassung

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.
