Meade LX90 8 inch Schmidt Cassegrain

The Meade LX90 8 inch Schmidt Cassegrain has ultra precise pointing accuracy. It automatically  levels your telescope, sets it to true North and sets the time. You just enter your zip code or location. Then the patented Level North automatic alignment procedure begins, after the LX90 will point to the first alignment star.

The Meade LX90 is a high resolution visual observing instrument which is also qualified for more advanced areas of astronomy, including long exposure CCD-imaging and astrophotography. For tracking celestial objects as well as accurate guiding corrections during long exposure imaging, the LX90 has worm gears of 4.9" diameter on both telescope axes for sidereal-rate tracking. Also offering high performance is the Meade Polaris 114mm reflector telescope.

The Meade LX90 comes with a Super Plossl 26mm eyepiece. By dividing the focal length of the eyepiece (26mm) into the focal length of the telescope (2000mm) the power of this eyepiece is 77 times. The LX90 is loaded using C-cell batteries through the upper surface of the telescope's drive base. Its powered at 12 volts DC. You can also power it simply from an automobile cigarette lighter plug.
