Telescope Restoration

In July 2017, NWA Space became the proud owner of a 36-foot long, 24-inch diameter antique refractor telescope. Originally built in 1911 by the John Brashear Company to the specifications of William Cameron Sproul who donated the instrument to Swarthmore College, the Telescope is an f/18 instrument – 18x longer than it is wide.

Outreach

Once again we were on Dickson Street for Moon on Dickson on Saturday November, 4th.  We had a great time looking at the Moon and talking with all the people on Dickson Street.

 

Success Stories

We have held numerous events, hosted star parties, and visited schools.
