A telescope assembly which includes a telescope supported for movement on an equatorial drive ring about a horizontal declination axis. The drive ring is rotatably supported on a stand for movement of the telescope about a polar axis extending through the declination axis and perpendicular to the declination axis. A telescope in the assembly includes a nose adjustably supported on an annular mounting frame, whereby the nose is rotatable to swing in an arc the position of a viewing assembly. The annular mounting frame is connected through easily disconnected truss rods to the base of the telescope which mounts the primary mirror in the telescope.
