ASTRO-PHYSICS
Events
Astro-Physics occasionally attends star parties and other astronomy conferences.
We enjoy the opportunity to meet our wonderful customers and other enthusiastic
astronomers - to connect faces to names.
We also showcase new or prototype instruments at
these events. Honest, we don't bring prototypes to
tease and torment you. We want to know what you think about new mechanical or optical design ideas
and to compare the performance with other instruments
under real observing conditions (if an outdoor star party). The links for past events will
take you to some photos taken of the equipment that we demonstrated. Thank you for stopping by.
