Sirene Observatory in Provence
 

The Sirene Observatory, Lagarde d'Apt. Altitude 1100m.

 
The instruments
 

The "slab" on which our instruments are installed is part of the former nuclear missile strategic silo, and its thickness, as well as its anti-seismicity, guarantee a perpetual observing station! Covered in top soil to avoid the day's heat accumulation, it allows the observers to fully benefit from the sky of the Plateau d'Albion in the day as in the night.
Constantly moving, the telescopes sometimes change configuration, but are always optimized to allow you to carry out quality observations.
A range of accessories, eyepieces, filters and imaging material supplement the observations adapting themselves to the objects observed and your wishes of the moment !
