Meade ETx Telescope
The Meade ETx telescope line is a well-known group of true catadioptric telescopes. They include the ETX-80, ETX-90AT, ETX-105AT, and the ETX-125AT. With a corrector plate at the top end of the tube, the light beam reaching the main mirror gets modified and gives a refined image with a shorter tube. The smaller 80 mm Meade ETx telescope starts at a retail price of $280, while the higher end 125 mm telescope retails for $1000. With just the base 80 mm model, you will be able to see the craters of the moon, Saturn's rings, and Jupiter's cloud belts. You have the option to add the AutoStar Suite software to help you differentiate your double stars from your nebulae when looking at the night sky.
