Meade SN10 is beautifully designed, and its appearance is wonderful not only in looks but also in its performance. It is so handy and high-tech that you can carry it anywhere, without any problems. The meade lxd75 sn10 with a solid GoTo mount feature offers accurate tracking and sufficient aperture to see a star or object, in the deep sky, without any hindrance.
It is a computer-compatible device, which means you can use it even with the help of a computer. The meade lxd75 sn-10at is so intelligently-designed that you can use even other optical tubes, of different makes, with your device.
The Meade SN10 has many distinctive features, which are listed below:
In order to see a sharp image and also to reduce the effect of distortion while viewing a star, galaxy, or any other astronomical object, precision-machined aluminum cells are used to mount the optics. This also reduces the effects of air currents that enter the tube. In order to provide an exceptional thermal stability, premium-grade pyrex mirrors are used in the LXD75 SN-10.
It is an excellent choice to capture a short view or a far-away view, due to its high speed and well-corrected ratios. The Meade SN10 is compatible with 1.25” and 2” eye-pieces, which increases the focuser’s ability and also achieves a precise focus. The lxd75 sn10 is made up of heavy-duty castings, which results in a high level of professional performance and also helps to look into the galaxy of stars and other astronomical objects.
In order to get a slewing performance and also a smooth tracking, both axes are assembled with high-precision worm gears. One of the best features, in this model, is its precise alignment with the help of the 3-star alignment, which eliminates the mechanical or optical alignment process. Even if you want a more precise view of the object, with the help of this Meade SN10, you may use the high-precision pointing function (HPP).
It will adjust the object in the centre of the view finder and allow you to look into the deep sky and view other astronomical objects, with peace of mind.
It is observed that during a long-time view of astronomical objects, there occurs periodic error on the RA axis. The lxd75 sn-10at has a periodic error-correction (PEC) facility, which reduces errors that occur during several training sessions. AudioStar controller is used in the Meade SN-10 AT to control the 9-speed drive from a slew rate of 4.5”/Sec to 1x sidereal.
During deep-sky viewing of a particular star or galaxy, stability and vibration damping is required; and this is provided by the Meade SN10 via its heavy-duty field tripod and variable height.
There is another unique feature called the precise polar alignment, which can be achieved via an illuminated polar-alignment viewfinder. By default, it is powered by 8 D-size batteries, but you can use it on DC power cord or an AC wall adapter. Other distinguishing features of the Meade SN10 are 32K RAM, Main Telescope Controller, Slew Speed both axis, Slow Motion Control, Hemispheres of Operation, and Declination Control System.
