WARNING!
Never use a Meade® LXD75TM-Series Telescope to look at the Sun!Looking at or near the Sun will cause instant and irreversible damage to your eye. Eye damage is often painless, so there is no warning to the observer that damage has occurred until it is too late. Children should always have adult supervision while observing.

[. . . ] You will need to know the latitude and longitude of your location to perform this procedure. Using the Add option, choose a site on the list that is closest to your observing site and press ENTER so that the site is added to your observing sites list. Choosing a site already on the list (as opposed to using the "Custom" feature) makes it easier to edit, as the "Time Zone" value may not need to be changed. The name of the site you have just entered to your list displays; if it does not, scroll to the site. Using the Arrow keys, change the name of the site so that it now reads the name of your observing location. Using the Number Keys, enter the latitude of your observing site and then press ENTER. Using the Number Keys, enter the longitude of your observing site and then press ENTER. (If the site you chose from the list in step 1 has the same Time Zone as the site you are editing, just press ENTER again to go on to the next step. ) "Time Zone" refers to the Greenwich Time Zone shift. Users West of Greenwich, use "-" hours (one hour per time zone) and users East of Greenwich use "+" hours. For the United States, look up the shift in TABLE 1, at the left.

Using Autostar to Find Objects Not in the Libraries
In this procedure, you will enter coordinates of celestial objects that do not appear in any of the Autostar libraries. You may also enter the object's magnitude and size (optional information). Although Autostar contains an extensive database of celestial objects (stars, nebulae, planets, etc. ) that you can observe, you may eventually want to view objects that are not part of a library. Autostar provides a feature that allows you to enter an object's R. A and Dec. coordinates in the "User: Objects" option of the Object menu and allows automatic slewing of the telescope to the user-entered coordinates. Check out your local library, computer store, or bookstore for astronomy books, CD Roms, or magazines (such as Sky & Telescope or Astronomy), to find coordinates of celestial objects. The objects/coordinates you enter become part of your own permanent database, called "User Objects. " To enter coordinates of an object into the "User: Objects" option of the Object menu:
Tip: Entering R. A. Coordinates of an object without using the menus: If you do not wish to navigate through the menus, a more direct way to enter coordinates is to press and hold MODE for two seconds or more. coordinates of any celestial object using Number keys, overwriting the coordinates currently displayed. As soon as the coordinates are entered, Autostar slews the telescope to the coordinates. [. . . ] Most impressive of these is the Great Nebula in Orion (M42), a diffuse nebula that appears as a faint wispy gray cloud. The four largest moons can be observed in a different position every night.

Open Clusters are loose groupings of young stars, all recently formed from the same diffuse nebula. Constellations are large, imaginary patterns of stars believed by ancient civilizations to be the celestial equivalent of objects, animals, people, or gods. [. . . ]
