Here some of manufacturers description of this model:
All of the major planets except Pluto are easily observable through the ETX-70AT. Study Saturn and its ring system; the primary cloud belts of Jupiter as well as its four major satellites; the Moonlike phases of Mercury and Venus; prominent features on Mars; the starlike images of the distant planets Uranus and Neptune. The Moon stands out in stark, almost three-dimensional detail – craters, mountain ranges, and fault lines.
In our galaxy the telescope displays hundreds of nebulae, star clusters, double and multiple stars and variable stars – plus dozens of external galaxies in all their variations of form and structure.
The Meade ETX-70AT refractor is perhaps the first innovative beginner’s telescope for the present generation.
This telescope also makes an excellent land-view instrument for the birdwatcher, etc. Image quality and resolution typically far exceed levels normally expected of terrestrial telescopes. Using Autostar, many land objects can be readily followed, or tracked, from a distance, using one of nine selectable speeds.
Use your telescope for astrophotography, the 64ST Camera Mount screws into the rear view port. You can then attach a suitable T-mount/T2-mount adapter for your camera. The telescope is then firmly attached and becomes the camera’s lens. Manual also available online and you can download it from here:
