Mead has introduced the mySKY PLUS, a new product that looks faintly similar to a Romulan blaster. Unfortunately, (or should that be fortunately), that is where the similarity ends. With this device you simply point at an object, squeeze the trigger, and it shows you what it is...
Meade mySKY PLUS is simply a handheld, interactive sky exploration guide.

The new Meade mySKY PLUS is an easy-to-use multi-media tool that will guide you through the night sky better than if you had your own private astronomer standing next to you.

Meades new handheld, interactive sky exploration guide, mySKY, is recognised for its unique ability to identify and define the night sky to any user, earning it renowned attention and praise. For its innovation in technology and scientific educational value, mySKY has also attracted the attention of the International Academy of Science and is nominated for its 2007 Outstanding Technology of the Year Award.

We are humbled and honoured to receive such a distinguished nomination. We truly believe that mySKY embodies the Academys mission of bringing cutting-edge science and technology to the world, and this makes mySKY a top contender - Steve Muellner, President and CEO of Meade Instruments, the worlds largest manufacturer of optical products for the amateur astronomer.

Recently launched in summer of 2007, mySKY is the first multimedia sky exploration guide on the market. The intuitive functions of mySKY let users discover and learn about more than 30,000 celestial objects by pointing mySKY at an object in the night sky, clicking the trigger and experiencing the universe. Images, video and audio descriptions from its LCD screen and ear buds allow everyone to learn about the cosmos like never before.
