2024-12-06 The L87 observatory is for sale! These are three telescopes that are great for searching for NEOs, comets and supernovae, but are also suitable for photometric, spectroscopic (low resolution) observations and LRGB photography in the focus of a 0.36m SCT telescope. If you are interested in further details, please e-mail us at moonbase.south@gmail.com. We recommend this observatory under the southern dark Namibian sky!
