The Meade polar align routine (at least for LX 90) is a three star/two star/ or one star routine which tries to accurately get a picture of the sky in polar config. So it is necessary to have an idea of where the stars are and a clear-ish sky. I have found that for visual use two stars is enough but not for photography
