Roof Mounted Telescope

Setup takes about 10 minutes.

Roof mounted telescope.

When the roof opens up the scope can pivot upward and get to most of the sky. When the night sky is clear the zeiss telescope is open from the roof and serves up to 600 visitors per night. The mobile observatory comes with a 3 point hydraulic telescope isolation platform that isolates the telescope from the trailer floor allowing you to walk around the observatory without shaking the telescope. This telescope is free to the public every night the the observatory is open and the sky is clear.

The primary thing to remember here is that when you set out to make a roof mount for that telescope at the home itself is that the main motive is to make a strong mount. The 100 inch 2 5 m hooker telescope which was the largest aperture. Pick the lumber shape accordingly. The observatory contains two historically important telescopes.

Mounted in the copper clad dome on the east end of the building is the zeiss telescope array. The observatory is more or less exactly the right size for the telescope to sit in its horizontal stored position diagonally with the roof closed. Your telescope setup can stay mounted in the observatory even while in transit. Inflexion roof mounted fold down telescoping mast was designed to meet the elevation requirements of smaller payloads such as cameras positioners antennas and advanced broadcast devices.
