Telescopes for Teachers
In the Fall of 2023, our program was granted funding from NASA’s Science Activation Program to purchase telescopes to be distributed throughout classrooms in Idaho. As a participant in the Telescopes for Teachers program, you will receive a long-term loan of a user-friendly Unistellar eQuinox2 robotic telescope for your school!
As of September 2024, our first 50 telescopes have been distributed throughout the state of Idaho!
We are in the process of securing more funding for our program to purchase more telescopes and get more teachers involved. For now, we are requesting that any Idaho public educator, either in the classroom or otherwise fill out our interest form and we will be in touch!
