Even with the AutoStar II's massive 145,000 object library, star charts and
planispheres are still useful for a variety of reasons. In particular, they are a
great aid in planning a night of celestial viewing.
A wide variety of star charts are available in books, in magazines, on the inter-
net and on CD Roms. Meade offers Epoch 2000sk
software. Contact your Meade dealer or Meade's Customer Service depart-
ment for more information.
Astronomy and Sky and Telescope magazines print star charts each month
for up-to-the-minute maps of the heavens.
Looking at or near the Sun will cause irreversible damage to your eye. Do not point this tele-
scope at or near the Sun. Do not look through the telescope as it is moving.
