I just wish we could figure out how to zoom in on some stars. Once you get this telescope together, it's fairly easy to use. To see the moon anyway. I'm sure someone who knew what they were doing would get a lot more out of it. This telescope is capable to have an optional electronic and computer motor drive system attached to it.
Computer software is available.
Then you can hook up to the computer and view what the telescope is viewing, print pictures and everything. Sounds like it would be great. There are computer control buttons on the side of the telescope. It can be upgraded with an optional Meade Digital Electronic Controller. I wish we could spend more time with it than we do, trying to figure out how to view those far away stars.
