Please look up the price on their website. It's not my place to try to sell or dissuade anyone from their well built products. I have had nothing but great service from Sidereal Trading in the past. I live in Canada. For those that can afford this product it will be great. It is in my personal opinion out of reach of the average back yard astronomer. I was hoping that it was in a competitive price range with NexDome which needs to be assembled.

It provides excellent protection from those killer Aussie drop-bears 🐨 👀, but an umbrella is quite a bit cheaper.

Obviously made for a scope on a pier but even with that a 17"CDK would fit maybe but with no room for a human occupant. At $25K for that little thing I can have a roll off roof structure built AND buy me a nice scope to put in it! I'll pass on the 'dome'!

I hope this isnt a dumb question, but could this be configured to work with a Seestar or any other electronic telescopes?

Very nice but really, for $25k I could build four 10x10 roll off roof observatories on concrete bases. I’m guessing their target audience in 60+ who’s building days are over.

Well, I've been in and out of that door so many times now. It's meant as a remote dome that you don't normally enter, but if you're a really beefy astronomer you might have trouble.

people buy single OTA's for twice, thrice, sometimes even quadruple that amount. Add a mount to carry an OTA in that price class and youre easily exceeding 100k. If you have that kinda money, youll have another 25k for a dome.
