Our Telescopes

Our equipment is chosen with one goal in mind: sharing the night sky with as many people as possible. Every telescope we bring to an event is selected for reliability, ease of use, and the ability to deliver memorable views for first-time observers.

Kyle and James each maintain a fully self-contained telescope trailer equipped with solar power and battery storage. This allows us to host events in remote locations without generators, noise, or light pollution.

For large public events, both trailers are deployed to provide multiple observing stations and minimize wait times.

Solar Observing

In addition to nighttime observing, we regularly offer safe, live views of the Sun during daytime events. Using specialized solar telescopes and filters, visitors can observe sunspots, solar prominences, and surface detail in both white light and hydrogen-alpha wavelengths.

Solar observing is always conducted with properly designed equipment and strict safety procedures.

Binocular & Smart Scopes

Large mounted binoculars provide wide-field views of star clusters, the Milky Way, and bright deep-sky objects. These stations are especially popular with younger visitors and those waiting for telescope views.

We also deploy smart telescopes when appropriate, allowing visitors to see faint objects in near real-time while learning how modern astronomy tools complement traditional visual observing.

Our equipment continues to evolve as new opportunities for outreach arise.
