EXPECTED OPENING

SPRING 2025

Located just north of the city of Pordenone (Italy) at the Polo Tecnologico Alto Adriatico technology center, the PL SPACE CENTER is an advanced astronomical observatory equipped with cutting-edge telescopes developed by PrimaLuceLab. This facility is designed not only for space research but also as a hub to inspire exploration of the universe by connecting groundbreaking technology with the public, educators, and companies worldwide.

THE INSTRUMENTS AT PL SPACE CENTER

INTREPID 500-12 ground station

INTREPID 500-12 ground station is a 5-meter diameter system built for space communication in the S and X radio bands, enabling capturing artificial radio signals from deep-space probes and satellites.

SPIDER 300A MarkII

The SPIDER 300A MarkII radio telescope comes with a 3-meter diameter antenna and is specifically designed for 1420 MHz radio astronomy education and outreach.

DUAL-PRO Observatory Station

Coming in Spring 2025, the DUAL-PRO Observatory Station features a 3-meter diameter dome with dual telescopes for astrophotography, astronomy studies, & satellite imaging.

WHY WE CREATED THE PL SPACE CENTER

At PrimaLuceLab, we are driven by a passion for space exploration & the advancement of astronomical technologies. The PL SPACE CENTER showcases the culmination of our efforts, featuring state-of-the-art telescopes & ground stations. Our goal is twofold: to demonstrate our world-class technology to customers and researchers globally, and to engage future generations of astronomers and scientists that would like to learn how to use PrimaLuceLab instruments. Whether you are a potential collaborator or an educator, the PL SPACE CENTER is your gateway to the stars.
