ABOUT US

From Leigh Denton, Lead Astronomer at Light-Year Astronomical Association:

The Light-Year Mobile Observatory is a pioneering project by the Light-Year Astronomical Association nonprofit dedicated to creating a fully functional mobile observatory. This innovative platform will travel to various designated locations across the United States, offering the public unparalleled access to astronomical wonders.
 

The observatory will be equipped with a comprehensive suite of instruments, including both traditional and digital telescopes, astrophotography equipment, and dedicated computers for on-site data analysis and planetary observation. This project holds immense significance as it fosters scientific exploration for individuals of all ages and experience levels.
 

We at Light-Year Mobile Observatory are enthusiastic about the transformative potential of this initiative. To learn more about this exciting endeavor, we encourage you to visit our website or follow us on social media.
