Choose Starfront, and join a growing community dedicated to making remote astronomy accessible and exciting for everyone!
Why is your pricing so much better than other remote observatories' prices?
A core part of our mission is to broaden the audience base of amateur astronomers and astrophotographers. To make dark sky remote imaging something almost anyone can experience! So we're doing our best to offer the lowest pricing that we can to our customers.
We've recently introduced our Mini pier, which is only $149 per month to rent the pier! While we do not accommodate motorized flat panels (sky flats are the solution!), piggyback systems or side-by-sides for these Mini piers as the point of this pier tier is to drive the price as low as possible for customers, you get the same excellent customer service, the same amazing community, and the same dark skies!
