The company
Lunatico came out of the interest in Astronomy of its founder, Jaime Alemany, who has enjoyed and suffered for his passion for the sky since young.
The unique experience of watching, sometimes at a glance, the Milky Way in a clear, cloudless night, a cumulus, the Moon, or that of taking images of any galaxy or nebula, is usually accompanied by carrying telescopes, cameras, batteries, eyepieces, cables, more cables… spending cold nights and making taxing attempts of setting up telescopes and mounts…
From this experience, with which we are sure you shall identify, Lunatico comes out with a fundamental objective, to make astronomy easier for the amateur astronomer, with an outstanding customer support.
