"HERE COMES THE SUN!"

Solar activity has increased dramatically over the last year. Don't miss out on what experts say could be the best solar maximum in many years, and that is this year: 2012!

Scientists have observed that the Sun goes through various cycles of a activity. The last period of high activity on the Sun was
the year 2000. We then went through a period for the past decade, where solar activity was at it's minimum.

How can you safely observe Solar activity on the Sun this year and take advantage of this?ᅠ

Well, quite easily actually; With a Coronado SolarMax Telescope ᆴ which will allow you to precisely do just that.
Available in several different sizes, from the basic PST (personal Solar Telescope) to the top of the line
SolarMax 90 Telescope, the choice is yours:

Now you can zero in on the most precise wavelength of light for each area on either side of the hydrogen-alpha (Ha) band for the highest contrast views of active regions, flares, filaments and other surface features - or quickly retune for spectacular images of prominences on the solar limb.

Here is a link to the complete line of Coronado SolarMax Telescopes:

Our Customers Write!

Here is an Unsolicited written Testimonial from a customerᅠ we received recently:

"Iᅠ am new to astronomy, and did not know anything about it.

ᅠso my first reaction was "well I will get something low end just in case don't like it"

Iᅠgave Khan a visit, and wow, the amount of time he spent educating me about the the hows, and whys of astronomy really changed my perception and confidence on purchasing the right telescope for me .

The best part was when Alex showed me diagrams, and picture comparisons of different size telescopes and models, eye piecesᅠand so on,
that kind of customer service is VERY hard to find anywhere else

I think what separates Khan from the other telescope retailers is that its a passionate hobby for him not just a job,
ᅠand you can tell his enthusiasm right from the start, unlike other major telescope companies.

new meade lx80 mount at khanscope


THE NEW LX80 MULTI-MOUNT EASILY TRANSITIONS BETWEEN GERMAN EQUATORIAL, ALT-AZ AND DUAL OTA CONFIGURATIONS TO HANDLE ALL YOUR ASTRONOMICAL NEEDS.

Now you no longer have to make the difficult decision between the ease of setup and operation of an altazimuth mount or the versatility and long duration imaging capability of a German Equatorial Mount. Meade's new LX80 is the only mount that gives you both plus one more - three computerized GoTo mounts for the price of one.

GERMAN EQUATORIAL, ALT-AZ & DUAL OTA

The remarkable LX80 Multi-mount operates in three modes, German equatorial, single OTA altazimuth and dual OTA altazimuth. Setting up in any mode is quick and easy:
  • Solid aluminum structure, with two large, tapered roller bearings.
  • Carries a total payload of up to 40 pounds in EQ/Alt-Az modes and 75 pounds in dual OTA modes.
  • Precision worm gear drives on both axis deliver smooth, accurate tracking.ᅠ Meade's proprietary SmartDrive" provides periodic error correction that dramatically reduces errors providing performance only available on much more expensive mounts.
  • Primary and secondary OTA dovetail plates are industry-standard for maximum compatibility with all of your OTAs.
  • The computerized GoTo mount is controlled with the amazing AudioStar Computer Controller with Meade's exclusive Astronomer Inside audio descriptions of the objects you are viewing.
  • With large two inch diameter stainless steel legs, the all new LX80 tripod is rugged and stable. Built-in fine-tune leg levelers at the top of each leg make doing small adjustments the easiest they've ever been.
  • The LX80 is available with a variety of optical tube assemblies including Meade's Schmidt-Cassegrain systems in 6, 8 and 10 inch apertures. The new Series 6000 ED Triplet APO refractors, in 80mm and 115mm apertures, Coronado SolarMax II 60 and SolarMax II 90 for H-alpha solar viewing. The LX80 is also available as mount/tripod only.
The new line of LX80s with Multi-Mount from Meade Instruments is the most innovative and versatile mid-range telescope system available anywhere.

MEADE LX 800 AT KHAN SCOPE CENTRE

Meade Instruments introduces the latest in a long line of advanced astronomical products - the LX800(TM). Using revolutionary new technology, every aspect of this system has been designed to deliver the new standard in astrophotographic and visual performance.

FASTER, SHARPER OPTICAL SYSTEM

Meade's all NEW optical system completes the LX800 system:

  • Fast, f/8 Advance Coma-Freeᆴ optical system available in 10", 12" and 14" apertures.
  • Unique internal Crayford-style, ZERO image-shift focusing system with a two-speed 7:1 control. This focusing system rigidly holds the primary mirror and eliminates the need for a mirror lock.
  • Optional large-format, three-element f/5 focal reducer/field flattener. This delivers even wider fields, faster exposures and a photographically flat field even with larger sensors.
  • Also available: Series 6000 3 element air-space apochromatic refractor (Optional field flattener available).

PRECISION MACHINED, SOLID GERMAN EQUATORIAL MOUNT

Constructed of machined stainless steel and aircraft grade 6061-T6 aluminum, the LX800 mount presents a rock-solid platform:

  • Supports 90 pounds of instruments. That's not including the counterweights.
  • Precision roller bearings are employed on both RA and DEC axis.
  • Robust 0.68" diameter brass worm and a 5.8" diameter, 225 tooth aluminum gears.
  • Utilizes a 1.75" stainless steel threaded counterweight shaft.
  • Fully computerized GoTo German Equatorial Mount with GPS and 144,000-object database.
  • All-new super-stable tripod.

STARLOCK - FULL-TIME AUTOMATIC GUIDING

The LX800 is the first FULL-TIME AUTOMATIC GUIDING SYSTEM on the market incorporating Meade's all new StarLock(TM) technology:

  • An 80mm f/5 optic operating in tandem with a super wide-angle lens creates a two camera system that automatically finds your target in high precision.
  • Guides to an incredible accuracy of one arc second and can lock on stars as dim as 11th magnitude. Focusing the StarLock optics is not required nor is there a need to select a guide star.
  • Eliminates the need for a computer or separate guide scope.
  • Automatically programs periodic error correction, corrects for errors down to virtually zero and then guides.
  • Provides computer-assisted polar alignment using drift method for extreme precision.
