"Schwabe" will adjust telescopes in the club of young technicians SB RAS

2021: Maintenance plan for seven telescopes

Optics of the Novosibirsk plant of the Schwabe Holding of Rostec State Corporation will service seven telescopes with mirrors from 80 to 150 mm - this is the main park of the astronomy section at the Club of Young Technicians (KUT) of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS), founded in 1964. This was announced by Schwabe Holding on August 18, 2021.

TAL-1

Refinery engineers will clean and adjust each device free of charge.

Astronomy has been studied here for more than 50 years. Thanks to the work of our opticians, the quality of the image obtained by telescopes will return to the level of the picture given by new devices. On updated devices, the guys will continue to study celestial bodies, meteorites, as well as interesting space phenomena, and will study astrophotography. And we will be happy to contribute to the development of children, "said Anton Klokov, Director General of the refinery.

Serial production of the TAL-1 Newton system began in 1982. It became a mass telescope of the refinery. Thanks to a complex optical system of high resolution, the TAL line for 2021 is considered significant for amateurs and professionals in astrophotography. Each device of the series comes with an equatorial mount equipped with limbs for high-precision determination of the coordinates of celestial objects.

The Novosibirsk Instrument-Making Plant has been producing telescopes for more than 45 years. In 1975, one of the developers of the enterprise, Yuri Klevtsov, created a fundamentally different complex optical system of high resolution. After 20 years, the scheme laid the foundation for the production line of telescopes of the Klevtsov system.

The Club of Young Technicians SB RAS is one of the oldest such children's organizations in Novosibirsk Akademgorodok. Hundreds of schoolchildren of Novosibirsk implement their engineering, research, educational, sports and art projects on its basis. The club was created on the initiative of academician M. A. Lavrentiev and the decision of the Presidium of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
