The “foundation stones” for our secondary station in the student laboratory in the form of a row of bricks are bricked and the telescope foundation with the telescope column are concreted. Soon a wooden framework will support a telescope dome with a diameter of 3.5m. Under the dome, a heavy mount will be placed on the column, which in turn will support several lens and mirror telescopes.
