Us boys seem to way over built, over analyze everything that has to do with fabricating something, large or small. Think about this for a bit, a simple 18"x18"x 24" deep footing or pad will hold up a huge beam that supports part of the second floor on a normal home. How big is this telescope? I understand its just a little more digging will create that concave hole. It isn't a big deal unless its the Hubble telescope but other then that, a simple pad will work jsut fine IMO.
