Facilities in December, 1998

Assembled a reflector(5.2inch) equatorial which get me back to an enthosiast of astronomy after 30 years absence.

Facilities in January, 1999

With an investment of \1,500,000 (US$12,500), I constructed the digital astronomical observation system. Main system (with automatic introduction/tracking system) + Automatic tracking system with high preision+ Digital/Analogue photo system.

Facilities in May, 1999

At last, I build an home observatory with Sliding Roofs. At the same time, new telescopes and a new CCD camera are purchased.

Facilities in December, 1999

Observation from the Base : For large objects (Diffuse nebulars & clusters), a short focal legth 8cm (3&1/4inch) ED lense Refractor is installed.
Observation from the mobile : Skysensor 2000PC, an automatic itroduction & guide system is installed for mobile use equatorial. Autmatic guiding system for star field pictures. A 6cmX7cm large sized film camera for starfield

Project for modifying the Saturn Equatorial in April, 2000

A project of bulding a heavy duty equatorial with Skysensor2000PC installed has started. (VIXEN's heavy equatrial "Type Saturn" and "Type Sensor" being kept in a storehouse of an local astronomy shop is used for base material.)

The Sensor Equatorial modified for Skysensor2000 around October, 2000

A Vixen's middle-sized equatorial the Type Sensor was succesful with the installation of the Skysensor2000PC.

The NJP Equatorial modified for Skysensor2000 in April, 2001

A new equatorial is installed. Takahashi's NJP, a heavy duty equatorial. Modyfied to be drived by the Skysensor2000PC.
