It is very portable and lightweight, and can be set up in your back yard, deck, or porch in just a few minutes. Or, put the Meade ETX 125 is your car and take it camping or to a dark sky site! The high quality, premium Mak-Cass optics in the ETX 125 provide high contrast, tack-sharp images of the Moon, planets, and deep-sky objects like galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters.

Here are some of the features and accessories included with your Meade ETX 125:

Red-Dot Finder: An easy-to-use finder that will aid you in pointing your telescope quickly and accurately

A 26 mm Eyepiece: A 26mm Series 4000 Super Plossl Eyepiece will give you a lower power, wide field view. Add more eyepiecse (sold separately) as you grow in the hobby.

Built-In Flip Mirror: This nifty accessory allows you to switch between terrestrial and astronomical viewing with a flip. If you will be doing a lot of terrestrial viewing, you may want to consider purchasing the Meade 45-Degree Erect Image Diagonal to allow for correct image orientation.

Compass with Bubble Level: This small accessory is a combination compass and bubble level, and it helps make set-up fast and easy.

AudioStar Hand Controller: The AudioStar Computerized Controller, first and foremost, moves and rotates the telescope to locate over 30,000 objects at the push of a button. However, unlike most other telescope controllers on the market, the Meade AudioStar also provides you with an exceptional multi-media experience by delivering over 4 hours of audio on the best objects in the sky. You can also use Tonight’s Best Tour to automatically take you on a guided tour of the best planets, stars, nebulae, and other objects that will be visible from your location on that particular night.
