[dandychiggins]

10/10 one of the best beginner telescopes

[rheal]

Can’t wait to get one of those instruments for myself

[EsteffersonTorres]

If I was a millionaire, I wouldn't care about cars or yachts, I would buy one of those!

World class telescopes being built by Planewave Instruments in Adrian, Michigan. These telescopes are being installed around the world by the Planewave Instrument staff.

I can only imagine the views you get there with eyepiece from the other side of Nasmyth.
Maybe someday, when I win the lottery :)

Be a great place to visit, great job team

One of these, or even larger, is on my list if I ever win enough millions on the UK lottery.

What is the MBTF for a system like this? What are the maintenance checks and intervals? Can it be operated 24/7 with minimum downtime?

[richardilionheart]

I have a question: can you do visual observation with that telescope? I am looking forward to your response

1-meter Telescope is, indeed, a small telescope at Cerro Tololo!

[kosminuskosminus]

is just me or anyone else sees the dust on the black side of the telescope ? me wondering of all that dust on the covers will just drop on the mirror when they open 🤔

Can I pay with ugh Per-generation ?
So like by 2200 I have paid the whole ammount xdd

[astrospeedcuber]

Only costs less than $600k USD, nothing the average amateur astronomer can't afford

[zgr]

prohibitive costs. 13k $ a 0.7x reduser...almost the price of 250 grams of gold....really ?
