Please donate to help restore the Perth Observatory’s Lowell Telescope and bring it back to astronomical research. Originally funded by NASA and acquired by Lowell Observatory of Flagstaff, USA, the telescope was installed at Perth Observatory on a permanent loan basis. In 1977, the Perth-Lowell Telescope played a crucial role in discovering the Rings of Uranus as part of the International Planetary Patrol Program (IPPP).
With your contribution, the Perth-Lowell Telescope can continue to make significant contributions to current astronomical research, including the exploration of black holes and exoplanets. By restoring this important telescope, we can renew international astronomical research at Perth Observatory and unlock new discoveries about the universe.
Please consider making a donation to support the restoration of the Perth-Lowell Telescope and help advance our understanding of the cosmos. All donations are tax-deductible and a tax receipt will be provided.
