Telescope store Mile High Astro doubles in size

Posted on Friday, October 25, 2024 by RICHARD HARRIS, Executive Editor

Mile High Astronomy, Colorado’s leading telescope store, is excited to announce the recent expansion of its showroom, offering customers an even more immersive and enhanced shopping experience. As the only dedicated telescope brick-and-mortar store within a 500-mile radius, this expansion marks a significant step in the company’s ongoing commitment to providing top-tier service to the astronomical community in Colorado and beyond.

Mile High Astro expands showroom to enhance customer experience

Sorin, the owner of Mile High Astronomy, shared the motivation behind the expansion: “We recently expanded our store, doubling the size of our showroom. Dedicated telescope brick-and-mortar stores are few and far between. We are the only one in Colorado, and for a 500-mile radius around.” This growth not only reflects Mile High Astronomy’s mission to serve a growing customer base but also its passion for making astronomy accessible to everyone, from beginners to experienced stargazers.

The newly expanded showroom now spans 2,800 square feet, doubling its original size. With this additional space, the store can offer an even wider range of products, including cutting-edge telescopes, astrophotography gear, and accessories. Customers can explore a more extensive selection in a redesigned, customer-friendly layout that makes it easy to browse and discover the latest advancements in astronomy equipment.

One of the key improvements in the new space is the expanded astrophotography section, which now has a dedicated area showcasing the latest cameras, mounts, and imaging tools. This section is designed to meet the needs of both newcomers and seasoned astrophotographers looking to capture stunning images of the night sky. Additionally, the showroom now includes a space specifically for showcasing smart telescopes, a growing trend that has revolutionized amateur astronomy. These innovative devices simplify stargazing, making it more accessible to users by automating many of the complexities of telescope operation.

Mile High Astronomy has also increased the size of its popular Used Gear section. With more room to display pre-owned telescopes, mounts, and accessories, customers can now browse a greater variety of quality, affordable equipment. This expanded section allows customers to find budget-friendly options without compromising on performance.

The expansion of the showroom is a testament to the strong support Mile High Astronomy has received from its loyal customer base. As a locally-owned and community-driven business, Mile High Astronomy is deeply committed to serving as a resource and gathering place for astronomy enthusiasts of all levels. The newly expanded showroom enhances the store’s ability to continue offering expert advice, product demonstrations, and a welcoming space for the astronomical community to come together.

With the expanded showroom now open, Mile High Astronomy invites customers to visit and experience the new space. The store is located at 9797 West Colfax Avenue in Lakewood, Colorado, and offers regular showroom hours from Tuesday to Friday, 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and Saturdays from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM. The store remains closed on Sundays and Mondays.

Mile High Astronomy remains dedicated to its mission of helping customers explore the universe with the best tools available. The expansion not only allows for a better in-store experience but also reflects the company’s commitment to growth and innovation in the field of amateur astronomy. Customers can expect the same high level of expertise and customer service, now with an even wider selection of products and services to choose from.

For those who cannot visit the showroom in person, Mile High Astronomy continues to offer a robust online shopping experience, complete with detailed product information, customer support, and fast shipping. Customers are encouraged to visit the Mile High Astronomy website or contact the store directly at 877-279-5280 for more information or assistance.

With the recent expansion, Mile High Astronomy is poised to continue serving as a trusted resource for stargazers throughout Colorado and the surrounding region.
