ScopeDome 3 mtr Observatory (fully automatic)
A permanently mounted telescope in its own observatory dome - your own private observatory. That is the dream of many amateur astronomers. The ScopeDome observatory turns this dream into a reality that is easily within your grasp.

Persuasive Quality:
This observatory dome is made from 6mm thick glass polyester laminate, which guarantees complete protection against all environmental conditions and simultaneously provides a high level of stability, with longevity guaranteed. Special reinforcement on the inside of the construction provides an additional increase in stability. The water-tightness of the dome is guaranteed by the special design of the joints, which prevent ingress of water to the inside the dome. A large air gap in the base and the light colour of the dome prevent excessive heating up.

The large observing slot, with a width of 1m, allows unhindered observing for telescopes with diameters of up to 90 cm. The observing slot has been designed in such a way that an unobstructed view right up to the zenith is possible using the telescope. Problem-free rotation of the dome is taken care of by the rollable base, which is carried on 16 plastic rollers.

- modular construction kit of multiple elements
