3D Printed Ultrascope
James Parr combined his love for design and space, tempered by a fear of heights, to think of a way he could explore space more thoroughly from the ground. He founded the OSA, comprised of designers, engineers, and scientists who have a passion for learning about and exploring space and has just created the first automated robot observatory that can take professional-grade images of space and perform photometry. It is still in beta testing, and the OSA is looking for individuals to get involved by helping to test the product and give their input. More details on the Ultrascope can be found here: http://3dprint.com/18460/3d-print-ultrascope/

So my first thought was "Ooh, neat looking telescope, wait, what the heck is an ultrascope?"
Spoiler: It's a telescope.
