Brief Description
The newly refurbished Norton Observatory (Brief Description Field)
In Depth Description
Originally built in 1982, the observatory was in much need of repair. Over the last year, Night Sky Concepts refurbished the site by automating the existing dome and installing a new robotic 14-inch telescope. This upgrade will enable the museum to bring astronomy to more visitors, day or night.
