Meade®DS-2130ATS
130mm (5.1") Altazimuth Reflector
LARGE APERTURE GO TO TELESCOPE
Reflectors have long been a favorite with amateur
astronomers. The large 130mm diameter mirror of the
Meade DS-2130ATS provides 469% brighter images and a
tremendous increase in fine detail, compared to common
60mm telescopes.
The standard equipment #494 AutoStar® Computer Control
System permits automatic object location and tracking of
more than 1400 objects in the AutoStar database at the
touch of a button.
See fainter and more distant objects in far greater detail.
Several thousand star clusters, galaxies and nebulae are
within range of this telescope. This model is highly
recommended for astronomical applications; however, due
toits image orientation it is not recommended for land
viewing.
Includes two premium 4-element Super Plössl eyepieces.

Meade 114EQ-AST
and Meade 114EQ-A
114mm (4.5") Equatorial Reflectors
LARGE APERTURE MANUAL TELESCOPES
Because the earth rotates once on its axis every 24 hours,
celestial objects move rapidly through the telescopic field,
particularly at higher powers. The equatorial mount of both
the Meade 114EQ-AST and 114EQ-A greatly facilitates object
tracking, simply by manually turning one or both of the
control cables.
The large 114mm-diameter mirror of these models gathers
361% morelightthan 60mm telescopes. Fainter, more
distantobjects can be seen in far greater detail.
The beginning amateur who intends to use a manual
telescope on a regular basis will find the equatorial mount
to be a valuable investment.

JUST BECAUSE A STAR MAYBE MILLIONS OF YEARS OLD
DOESN’T MEAN IT SHOULD TAKE YOU THAT LONG TO FIND IT
Until now, the stargazer’s two biggest challenges to enjoying
the night sky have been aligning their telescope and finding
objects. Meade’s new ETX® Premier Edition eliminates these
two challenges and makes astronomy as easy as pushing a
button—rightout of the box. Want to see a hard-to-find
deep space galaxy? Simply push a button. The same goes for
planets, stars, nebulae and more. Just pick an object you
want toobserve,press a button, and then AutoStar® will
automatically point your telescope. All you need is a clear
night, a dark sky and a little curiosity. Whether you already
know the sky by heart, or are just beginning your journey of
discovery, your Meade ETX Premier Edition will take you
whereyou want to go. Astronomy has never been so fun
and rewarding.
Its diffraction-limited optics are so crisp in contrast,
brightness and image resolution that they consistently
out-perform telescopes of larger aperture. All ETX
telescopes feature BK-7 glass and oversized Pyrex®

Adventures in Astronomy
From the comfort of your own backyard, you can explore
hundreds of galaxies,gas clouds (nebulae), and star clusters,
as well the Moon, planets, and comets with a Meade
telescope. The powerful light-gathering capability of a
Meade telescope can transform simple points of light into
objects of incredible detail. You will be enriched with the
experienceof seeing first-hand some of nature’s most
awesome spectacles.
WhatYou Can See
With any of the Meade telescopes presented in this
brochure, you can observe the following celestial objects,
and a greatmanymore, sharply and clearly: the magnificent
ring system of Saturn; the distinctive cloud belt structure of
Jupiter and four of its largest moons; hundreds of craters and
mountain ranges on Earth’s Moon and deep-space objects
including the Andromeda Galaxy, the Hercules globular star
cluster,and the diffuse Orion Nebula.

80EQ-A, NG-70, NGC-70, DS-2080AT and ETX®
Maksutov-Cassegrain models ETX-90™, 105 and 125 can
also be used for high-resolution terrestrial observation
—from reading a license plate a half-mile away to
studying the delicate detail of a bird’s feather. The
additional light-gathering capability of the larger
aperture Meade 114EQ-AST, 114EQ-A, DS-2130ATS,
ETX-90, ETX-105 and ETX-125 are especially
advantageous for deep-space phenomena. Several
thousand star clusters, galaxies and nebulae are within
range of these instruments.

ASTRONOMY

What About Power?
To calculate power, divide the focal length of the telescope
(e.g., 700mm for Model NG-70) by the focal length of the
eyepiece (e.g., 25mm).
Lower power eyepieces (e.g., 25mm) offer wide fields of view
for observing deep-spaceand terrestrial objects. Higher
power eyepieces (e.g., 9mm) offer greater magnification and
areuseful for observing surfacedetail on the Moon and
planets.
The Importance of Computerized Tracking
and Object-Location
Observing an astronomical object involves following a
constantly moving target. Every object in the sky moves in
the same manner as our Sun, rising in the East and setting in
the West. This apparent celestial movement is caused by the
rotation of the Earth.
Computerized Tracking: To the unaided eye an object
like the Moon appears to move slowly across the sky, but
will, in fact, move surprisingly quickly through the field
of view of a telescope. The AutoStar® Computer Control
System directs the telescope to automatically follow fast-
moving celestial objects.
Automatic object-location: A novice astronomer often
spends a disproportionate amount of time learning the
sky and searching for subjects to view. AutoStar
technology obliterates this learning curve. Meade’s
revolutionary AutoStar Computer Control System
facilitates automatic object-location and tracking of over
1400 objects.
COMPUTERIZED OBJECT-
LOCATION AND TRACKING

Types of Telescopes
All telescopes fall into one of three optical classes.
Refracting Telescopes,like
the Meade Model NGC-70,
use a large objective lens
as their primarylight-
collecting element.
Meade® refractors include
achromatic (2-element)
objective lenses in order to
reduce false color that
results when light passes
through a lens.
Reflecting Telescopes use
a concaveprimary mirror
to collect light and form an
image. Inthe Newtonian
type of reflector telescope,
the Meade Model DS-
2130ATS, lightis reflected
by a small, flat secondary
mirror to the side of
the main tube for
observation of the image. This is a large telescope
for a comparatively low price.
Catadioptric (Mirror-Lens) Telescopes like the
ETX-90 employ both mirrors and lenses, resulting in
optical configurations that achieve remarkable
image qualityand resolution in extremely short,
highly portable optical tubes.
