MISSION STATEMENT
Telescope SA is geared towards providing professional services and equipment for the novice and amateur astronomer in Southern Africa. South Africa has huge untapped resources, offering excellent viewing and dark, clear skies (outside the cities, of course!). This has been hampered by prohibitively expensive equipment and generally poor service to the market as a whole, making astronomy out of reach for all but the wealthy amateur... Until Now!

It is our intention to source telescopes and related equipment internationally at the best possible prices and to provide back-up services and accessories to the local market. Telescope SA imports both new and pre-owned telescopes, oculars, motor drives, CCD cameras, binoculars, filters and other equipment directly from international suppliers. Goods are ordered from as far a field as the Americas, the far East and Russia; and are delivered directly to your door! In addition to this, workshops and excursions are organised on a demand basis - making amateur astronomy more affordable to the South African market.
