Welcome to the RAS Observatory

We are all about having fun doing astro-imaging and research!

Won’t you join us?

Looking for a smart new gift idea?

Need Too many gifts and too little time?

The Remote Astronomical Society Observatory is located under the darkest skies in New Mexico, near the Apache Point Observatory, home of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Astrophysical Research Consortium. RASO provides the tools you need to fulfill your desire to contribute to astronomical research. And, it’s not all work. Take the astrophotographs of your dreams in between solving the mysteries of the universe.

RASO, on behalf of its members, contracts with GRAS for astronomical imaging services.

For those who are inclined to gain the pure satisfaction from doing things themselves, GRAS is the answer! GRAS puts you in command!
