The skies are very dark producing a visable star limit near the 7th magnitude. The observatory houses a Celestron 14 inch telescope on a precision Byers mount. The facility is equipped with a host of equipment to record your expereince. Darkroom facilities can also be provided when prearranged. Observing pads are planned that will allow amateur astronomers to bring their own telescope to enjoy our pristine skies.
Software is now as important as hardware in astronomy.
