Vakarian Space Telescope

Disclaimer:

Design is heavily based off the Chinese Xuntian "space station" telescope

•The Vakarian space telescope is a moderate sized astronomical observatory designed by AstroAerospace Technologies to help expand our knowledge of our celestial neighborhood and our universe as a whole through its many state of the art cosmic instruments!

•Vakarian is telescope that is built to last longer than its predecessors and has a lifespan of 25 years.

•We accomplished this level of sustainability by using highly durable metals, composites and construction techniques to ensure that our telescope stands the test of time better than those that came before.

•The VST is also equipped with a service module to provide access inside the telescope for repairs and upgrades to extend the telescopes lifespan via Elligius repair missions.
