For Sale: Meade ETX90-PE


In 2006, for my boyrfriend's birthday, I purchased a Meade ETX90-PE telescope, with Universal AC Adapter and extra zoom lens (purchased May, 2011). We have never used it, as it is much too complicated for what we want. Original cost was $807, plus $74 for the extra lens, and $67 for the adapter (total $948). I would like to sell it and get one that's more simple for us. Any serious offer will most likely be accepted!

Carina Nebula Posters for Sale

In celebration of the 17th anniversary of the launch and deployment of NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, a team of astronomers is releasing one of the largest panoramic images ever taken with Hubble's cameras. It is a 50-light-year-wide view of the central region of the Carina Nebula where a maelstrom of star birth — and death — is taking place. This image is a mosaic of the Carina Nebula assembled from 48 frames taken with Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys. The Hubble images were taken in the light of neutral hydrogen during March and July 2005. Color information was added with data taken in December 2001 and March 2003 at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile. Red corresponds to sulfur, green to hydrogen, and blue to oxygen emission.

I have many 42x84 Carina Nebula wall mural size photos mounted on 1/4 inch foam photo board for a child's room or any area or room wall or ceiling in the home. I am also accepting donations to fulfill my desire to see one in every science class, public and school library to inspire our children to look up. The price is $150 dollars mounted and 100 dollars in a shipping tube. I also have a 5 ft wide body printer and can print your photos at similar pricing. Let me know and I can bring the photo to a meeting or star party for viewing or pickup.
