New molds for TI35 allow to stay within 0,02 mm of tolerance!!
Another TI45 f/4 is leaving our company. It will be installed soon under Namibia sky.

M106 field. A very good raw test on a TI45 f/4. Single 90 sec, unguided, uncalibrated frame, taken with a KAF16803 (37 x 37 mm CCD sensor). Sky was medium-bad (SQM about 20.1, Poor seeing about FWHM 2,6″).
Holding a 362 mm diameter quartz blank in your hand and having the impression that it is made of plastic … it’s fantastic
– Fused Silica (Quartz) performs an awesome thermal expansion coefficient of 5.4 x 10-7/℃ , 6 time less than borosilicate glasses, harder enough to allow better figuring process and advantage in terms of strength to density ratio.
The first big lightweight mirror, 562 mm diameter, f/2.9. An awesome piece to handle.

First test of the Astrograph Control Software using a smartphone via WIFI. For more informations on our Astrographs, please visit our website: www.italiantelescopes.net The Control Software is full Ascom Alpaca compliant.
Un po’ di ritardo rispetto alle previsioni, ma ne varrà la pena. La presentazione dell’astrografo TI45 è prevista per la primavera 2016 e ci saranno sorprese molto interessanti (rispetto alle caratteristiche che trovate attualmente sul sito) che sicuramente giustificheranno l’attesa. Ancora un po’ di pazienza…
