LEO
houses a computer-controlled 14" Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope
and a TeleVue 102 mm refractor with a Coronado Hydrogen Alpha filter.
The observatory dome is mechanically synchronized to move in
coordination with the telescope. Six counter-weighted astronomical
binoculars with permanent mounts are provided in the Stargarden viewing
area with telescope platforms.
The Stargarden provides an
outdoor viewing area for observers to set up their own
telescopes.
Astronomy programs are
presented in collaboration with the Door Peninsula
Astronomical Society.
