After many years of manufacturing quality telescope piers and accessories for the amateur astronomical community, Advanced Telescope Systems has ceased manufacturing operations.
The continuing and substantial increase in the cost of raw materials, particularly aluminum, metals, and other manufacturing supplies, has made it no longer practical for us to continue producing our products to the standards of quality for which Advanced Telescope Systems has always stood.
We are no longer accepting new orders.
This was not a decision made lightly. Since our beginning, our mission has been to provide strong, precisely manufactured, and dependable telescope piers to astronomers throughout the United States and around the world.
We sincerely thank our customers and the amateur astronomy community for their support and confidence in Advanced Telescope Systems throughout the years.
