The largest provincial telescope has got its home. The “wedding” of telescope and dome tower is after more than 10 years of hard labor a central milestone to our student observatory. The precise maneuvering through the dome slit made the pulse of all participants and spectators beat noticeably faster. Until everything was placed on the telescopic foundation. Happy faces in the Champions-League of braggers! Next stop: Intermediate floor with internal staircase.
