STScI

Towards the SchoolLab I

In addition to the telescope on a heavy mount, each of the three identical stations in the school lab has a retractable protective building which serves as a heated control room during operation. Even at low outside temperatures, observations and measurements with a digital camera, CCD detector and computer can be carried out comfortably in this building. Each sliding hut has room for three to four observers. The huts are currently being manufactured by the Waldbröl-based company WSM Walter Solbach Metallbau.
