Space

Since 2005, we have hosted a telescope for Campo Catino Observatory from Italy, first a 50cm F/3 telescope with an AP8p camera on a Paramount ME, now a 40cm F/8 RC telescope with an ST8 camera.

Since 2007, we host two telescopes for a canadian group. The first one is a 50cm Planewave instruments telescope on a Paramount, with an Apogee ALTA U42 2kX2k thinned back illuminated chip. The second is a heavily modified C14 optical tube on a Paramount, with a defiltered Canon 5D camera behind a Hyperstar F/2 corrector.

We provide support for these telescopes, general maintenance, improvements. We have provided support for the installation of the telescopes too.

Next year, we might be able to offer telescope building service, for domes and mounts here, in order to decrease the price of your telescope's installation in Chile (it is much less expensive to build here than to purchase in the north, ship here, pay importation taxes).
