Engineered for Strength and Longevity
Built on a precision-engineered aluminium frame and clad with aluminium composite panels, the observatory delivers exceptional strength, durability, and weather resistance. The 3 m × 3 m footprint provides ample internal space for telescopes, mounts, and accessories, while remaining compact enough for a wide range of sites — from backyard setups to institutional installations.

The manually operated roof system runs smoothly on precision tracks and rollers, allowing effortless, controlled movement by hand. The design provides a straightforward and reliable solution — ideal for environments where simplicity and low maintenance are key.
For future expansion, the structure is preconfigured to support full automation, enabling a simple upgrade path to the Starling Observatory Control System and motorised operation when required.
Designed for Education, Research & Private Use
