The Antique Telescope Society is a truly international society with well over two hundred members devoted to preserving, collecting and learning about antique telescopes, historic observatories and related equipment and materials. There are currently members in over a dozen countries. While some members are professional astronomers, historians or librarians, others are collectors, dealers and colleagues interested in antique and historically significant instruments and their histories. Virtually all share some interest in the history of science and astronomy and ATS members are known for their serious dedication to keeping the history of the telescope alive.
