Some History . . .
Sky Scientific began operations in Skyforest, California, in 1979 manufacturing a line of Polaroid®-back cameras for astrophotography as well as aftermarket accessories for Meade® and Celestron® Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes. A retail store offered instruments and accessories for astronomy as well as conventional photography.
Optical design software was initially created for internal product development purposes but evolved into a viable commercial product beginning in 1994. By 2007, additional software applications were added. Sky Scientific Press was established as a separate company division in 2013.
Currently, Sky Scientific offers mail order and internet sales of optical design and other software applications plus a mixed compendium of new, used and surplus optics and supplies for amateur astronomers, telescope makers and educators as well as new novels and non-fiction books.
Company operations were moved from Skyforest, California, to Brookings, Oregon, effective January 1, 2019.
