Meade Instruments Corporation Astro Telescope. Model no: ETX-90EC.

Key Specifications:

  • 90mm (3.5") Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope with f/13.8 focal ratio and 1250mm focal length

  • Computerized dual-arm fork mount on steel tripod

  • Motor drives on both axes with push-button hand controller

Notable Features:

  • Built-in flip mirror mechanism for easy switching between visual and camera use

  • GoTo technology with large 30,000 object database

  • AudioStar controller with built-in speaker

  • Fast and easy alignment procedure

  • Portable and compact design ideal for travel

What to Expect: The ETX-90EC was designed as an entry-level computerized telescope that made "goto" technology accessible to amateur astronomers. It's capable of showing moon craters, cloud belts on Jupiter, and other celestial objects, though some reviewers note that larger aperture telescopes in similar price ranges may offer better performance for deep-sky viewing.

This lot includes Instructions, DVD, carrying case, and accessories as photographed.   Located on the second floor.
