You've Seen The Moon, Now What?
The orbiting mud ball that we inhabit, is the "Third Rock From The Sun" called planet
"Earth." There are several more planets in the solar system that are easily visible using the
ETX telescope. The AudioStar handset will have them on the menu as long as you
programmed in the proper information on start up.
Saturn is one of those planets where every person that has viewed it through a telescope
will remember when and where they were when they did it.
Jupiter is the big bully of the solar system and many times it's moons can be visible with
just the use of binoculars. With a decent telescope, Jupiter becomes even more
impressive.
Mars, is the so called "Red Planet." Take a look at it, you got to, you might even be the first
person to see the invading space force headed in our direction.
Other planets might also be visible depending on the time of year.
