The Hyades Cluster, one of the most well-studied open star clusters is within 50 parsecs of the Solar System. This donation will help us jump 50 parsecs closer to achieving our end goal.
Our telescope has an aperture radius of 160 mm. The area of this aperture is a measure of its light-gathering power. Therefore a donation of $160 will push us closer to achieving our goal.
The beautiful Pleiades star cluster is 444 light-years away! We'd be able to clearly see it with this telescope. Incidentally, in Japanese, the Pleiades cluster is called the Subaru.
The beautiful binary star Lambda Orionis is 1,320 light years away. With your help, we would be able to observe it!
The extraordinarily bright binary star WR 140 is located at a distance of 5,300 light years, and may be about to go supernova. With your help, our students would be able to observe this beautiful star before it vanishes.
