About the Dome

The Observatory’s copper-coloured dome houses two advanced telescopes: a 20-inch Corrected Dall-Kirkham for viewing stars, planets, and nebulae, and an 8-inch Hydrogen Alpha scope for safe solar observation. Equipped for both basic viewing and advanced astrophotography, the setup delivers world-class images. Thanks to the reserve’s remote location and minimal light pollution, the skies offer extraordinary clarity, with visibility down to Magnitude 7.4 – among the best in the world for stargazing.
