Our telescope was purchased with partial funding from the USDA Forest Service. Thanks to the Western Montana Astronomical Association (WMAA), it is set up in a user-friendly style for patrons. The Orion StarBlast 4.5" Equatorial telescope includes an instruction manual, posters, planispheres, and a carrying case.

You may borrow for 14 days. Late fines are $1.00 a day.
