Meade introduces a revolutionary way to explore our universe. The new Meade mySKY is an easy to-use multi-media device that will guide you through the night sky better than if you had your own private astronomer standing next to you.

With a full GPS auto alignment system, mySKY is ready to use right out of the box and requires no knowledge of astronomy. Featuring a full color, 480x234 pixel LCD display, and ergonomically designed to be easy to hold and operate, mySKY can identify and explore the more than 30,000 astronomical objects contained in its standard database. In addition, unlike anything else on the market, mySKY includes full multimedia presentations, video, audio, and text to enhance the user’s experience. In addition, and perhaps just as important, mySKY is also fully compatible with Meade AutoStar enabled telescopes, providing a user the ability to move a telescope from controls on the mySKY device.

This is a delightfully simple-to use device. Point it at the object you want to identify, squeeze the trigger then let MySKY identify your target and tell you all about it. You can also use it to find objects. Select the object from its database, follow the arrow on the display screen until you arrive at your target. It couldn't be easier and you will be amazed how quickly you start to learn your way around the sky.

Using the SkyScout:
Point the SkyScout at any bright star and it will instantly identify the object or choose an object from the celestial database of over 6,000 objects and the SkyScout will guide you to it.
The SkyScout includes great information and stories about the most popular celestial objects in scrolling text and narrated audio
SkyScout`s unique features include:
Tonight`s Must-See List - When the SkyScout is turned on, it will tell the user the 10 coolest things to look at in the sky that night, using internal GPS to automatically customize it to where that particular user is located
Constellation Lessons - If the user is looking at a star that`s part of a constellation, the SkyScout will inform the user, show a picture of the constellation, and help the user locate the other stars in the constellation.
Updatable Software and Data - USB port included for periodic updates of the operating software, as well as the ability to download new data from celestial objects like the Space Shuttle or passing comets.
SkyTour Content Cards - SD card slot exists for additional content offerings, such as Astronomy for Kids.

How does it work:
SkyScout combines GPS technology, which gives the time, date and location of the user, software that calculates the position of the objects for that moment and 3 axis sensors measuring gravitational and magnetic fields to determine the true orientation of the SkyScout to the earth.

This dial is hand made and hand painted.

It has not exactly been established when a magnetic compass was first added to a sundial.
The first portable compass-sundial was already known in 1480 in Nuremberg, which was the first city in Europe to have an organized trade of compass makers.
According to the craft rules, compass dials were to be made in ivory or good quality boxwood.
The sundial you have acquired is a perfect replica of the one signed by Hans Troschel dated in 1626 and it is totally handmade in ivory resin.
