Sky-Watcher Telescopes About Us

At Sky-Watcher U.S.A. our only mission is serving the needs of serious amateur astronomers. Sky-Watcher USA is a wholly owned subsidiary of Synta Optical Technology, the world’s largest manufacturer and distributor of astronomical telescopes. Sky-Watcher is a prestigious global brand renowned for technical innovation, award-winning industrial design, and a reputation for high quality workmanship. Sky-Watcher constantly strives to introduce new and improved instrumentation to enhance the amateur astronomer’s capabilities to push the boundaries of personal exploration.

For amateur astronomers the reality of high quality personal, portable observatory equipment has made it possible to experience the sky in a profound way that early explorers like Galileo and Newton could possibly have never thought possible. In many respects we follow in their footsteps, and in the footsteps of the ancients before them who had no instruments but enjoyed virtually everywhere in the world the darkest skies imaginable and a vivid imagination that created some of our most enduring references to the patterns of stars we see in the night sky. Humans will continue to be drawn to look up into the heavens, to try to understand cosmology, and to revel in the incredible beauty of the night sky as a significant element of the universe we experience. We at Sky-Watcher have found people from many different walks of life find personal telescopes fascinating. They always draw a crowd of eager observers. Astronomy represents fun science for young people and adults. In this respect telescopes are important and will always be a ubiquitous instrument in our culture because no matter how many astronomical images are viewed on a screen, or printed page there is nothing like seeing with your own eyes the rings of Saturn, the equatorial cloud belts of Jupiter, the pock marked face of the Moon, and innumerable deep-space gems through a telescope’s eyepiece. The photons from the object being viewed traverse space and actually enter the body through the human eye. In this way we are personally touched by the object we view. There is no substitute for the exhilaration, immediacy, and cherished memories these experiences provide.

We here at Sky-Watcher U.S.A. are dedicated to helping you facilitate your aspirations for viewing and imaging the heavens. Exploring the night sky with a personal Sky-Watcher telescope is a great experience that can provide you with a deep appreciation for the universe above us that surrounds our world.
