Rocky Mountain Astronomy Tours

04/02/2024

I'm Tanner, the owner and operator of Rocky Mountain Astronomy Tours, a mobile telescope business that brings the wonders of the night sky to people's homes, events, and parties. I have been hosting star parties since 2020 and I'm passionate about sharing my love of space with others.
I'm available to travel to most places in or near Utah to bring the Universe to you!
I host a range of activities for companies, families, and anyone else such as;
Constellation tours
Viewing galaxies, planets, nebulas, star clusters, etc. through a powerful telescope
Solar observing through a telescope with solar filters.
My current telescope is a large 11" Celestron Nexstar Schmidt Cassegrain mounted on a skywatcher EQ6-R Pro German equatorial to provide beautifully bright views of deep space objects with pristine tracking.
I'm excited to share my love of astronomy with you, your family, or your friends. Contact me today to book your stargazing adventure!
