Frequently Asked Questions

We understand that you may have questions about our services. Here are the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions:

How is the shared observatory roof controlled?

When does the shared observatory roof open and close?

The roof opens thirty minutes before sunset so that your telescope equipment can begin acclimating. This also depends on the weather conditions for the night. The roof closes thirty minutes after sunrise.
