Assembling The Telescope!

Parts are here, its time to assemble them

Installation Time!

We finally got all of our parts in, and we are ready to get everything assembled! Our friends over at Sierra Remote Observatories got our telescope up and running the last week and we have some pictures to share.

The majority of the pictures show the body of the telescope getting moved into it’s pier. There are also some photos of the rotary base that will turn the telescope to wherever we want it pointed.
