American Astronomy Center of Excellence

The legacy of American ingenuity, innovation and quality continues to lead the way in the field of amateur and professional astronomy.  While more astronomy products are available to the astronomer today than in any other time in history, when the consumer seeks the highest quality, they look to American-made products.  There is good reason for this.  For our members, providing products is as much about the science of problem solving as it is about the business of selling.  This understanding gives the consumer the unique confidence that both the manufacturer and customer share the same goals.     

 When you are considering your next telescope, telescope accessory or other astronomy related product or service purchase, look to the American Manufacturers first.  American manufacturers, both large and small, continue to offer the huge array of the worlds most technologically advanced, innovative, quality and value-oriented equipment available to the amateur astronomer today.  The American Astronomy Center of Excellence serves as a platform to showcase these manufacturers, their products, and to actively promote a deeper understanding of range of equipment produced here, in the United States, by our Members.

 At the American Astronomy Center of Excellence, we strongly believe that,

 “... the United States producers and manufacturers of astronomical products, astronomy accessories and services are of unrivaled quality and the value that they offer to the international user community is unquestioned.  The continuous innovation and delivery of high quality products is not merely an international perception, but a reality.  Products of U.S. manufacture are still the benchmark against which all others are measured.  “Made in America” stands for superior products.  It is our belief that American-made products continue to provide the greatest value available to the international astronomy community."
