VBAS's operates the Conrad Swanson Observatory, built in 1956, which houses our 21 inch telescope on the left below and the Wilhelm Angele Observatory, built in the early 1980s, which houses our Celestron C-16 Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope on the right which features a roll-off roof that gives a wide view of the sky for our Star Party visitors.
In addition to our Library, optical workshop, and member's telescope storage area, the Wilhelm Angele Observatory also includes a solar telescope as shown below.
