The LX200 series telescopes introduced in 1992 and the ETX telescopes available since 1999 have been particularly successful. This optical system, combined with an electronically controlled fork mount (GoTo), is still Meade’s trademark. In 1980, Meade introduced a Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope with an eight-inch aperture in the Model 2080 telescope. Visionary John Diebel made it his goal to offer high-quality products at reasonable prices. The first ad appeared in 1972 in the July issue of Sky & Telescope. The Meade Instruments company was founded in 1972 by John Diebel as a mail-order business for small telescopes. Meade Instruments is considered to be one of the most innovative and dynamic companies on the telescope market and is known for its ground-breaking optical designs.
