Meade Mysky for planets - Jul 10, 2007

"Does the Meade MySky magnifiy images like a telescope? Can I use it to see the rings of Saturn?" No, sky computers such as the Meade Mysky and Celestron Skyscout do not magnify images like a telescope. (The My sky does have a zoom function that will allow you to enlarge the map to better pinpoint the object you are trying to identify). The function of a sky computer is to identify things you have located in the sky. If you want to see the rings of Saturn, then, you will need to get a telescope. For the basics and how to choose a telescope, see my article, How to choose the right telescope .
