Slooh's Online Telescope |
Introduction to exploring space with Slooh
See how students using laptops, tablets or smartphones conduct space investigations.

"With Slooh's Online Telescope my students are finally able to 'do' astronomy in an authentic, hands-on way befitting of a science course."

Greg Schwanbeck

“Slooh brings the wonder, excitement, and dreams children associate with space exploration and the cosmos directly into every classroom.”

Dr. David Goldblatt
Former Superintendent of Saddle River School District, NJ
"I don't like online, kids spend too much time in front of screens,
but Slooh is the exception."

With Slooh’s district license, all students, teachers and parents have access including:
-
Live Star Parties featuring amazing celestial events

Summer school offered directly to students on Slooh


Slooh is much more than online observatories. It is patented technology delivering the cosmos live and in full color. It is a curation of the 1,000 most wondrous stars, planets, nebulae, galaxies, comets and asteroids with their stories passed down since antiquity. It is a telescope reservation system that makes shared control with a global community more fun, social and educational, with advanced control for deeper investigation.
Australian Observatory
Launching in Summer 2023, Slooh's new Australian observatory will extend Slooh's live coverage to 24 hours per day. The observatory, located a stone's throw from the world-class Siding Spring Observatory, will house a new research-grade Half Meter telescope.
Chile Observatory
Slooh’s southern hemisphere observatory, in partnership with the Catholic University, features three telescopes offering complete coverage of the rich southern skies.
Slooh is your interface to space
Canary Islands Observatory
Slooh’s flagship observatory features six telescopes and is situated at 9,000 feet at the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands, home to the largest optical telescope in the world. The time zone shift makes daytime astronomy possible in the United States.
