Since end of 2002, my family and I have developed an
interest in Astronomy. To explore this, I have built a small Observatory
in the back of our garden. The observatory houses a 14 inch (350 mm)
computerized Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope. The telescope is a LX200GPS
14" UHTC from the company Meade, California USA (www.meade.com).
The Observatory is 4 x 4 meters square, approx. 2
meters high, with a 3 meter rotating dome on top of it. The dome is
fully electric controlled, both the shutters and the rotation of the
dome. Please scroll down and see some pictures from the construction
phase.
