A nice easily-managed refractor kit, the Meade DS-2080AT-LNT provides sharp optics in a package that can travel simply and set up quite quickly. It is equipped with Meade's legendary AutoStar® computerized hand controller, which puts an enormous selection of celestial objects at your fingertips.
But best of all with the Meade DS-2080AT-LNT, on board is their revolutionary and patented Level North Technology capacity. You don't need to know the night sky. Thanks to electronic sensors for levelling and determining magnetic north, the process of getting your scope ready to hunt for celestial objects is shortened dramatically. You merely enter your location (in longitude & latitude) or your USA zip code and the machine does the rest, pointing to the first alignment star which you'll then further hone in on with the finderscope.
