Across The Universe Observatory

This is an observatory in transition. For a while, an 18-inch JMI telescope was set up so I could watch the transits and shadow of Titan on Saturn. After discovering the 18-inch limitations due to the high walls of the roll-off observatory, I stored it in the corner and set up my 12.5-inch f/8 vintage Cave Newtonian telescope. This was once part of the Mars Observatory of many years ago.

Another transition is underway to install an 8-foot domed observatory with an 8-inch f/2 Celestron RASA instrument to take photos to extend the library of the Seestar instruments with better resolution.
