Construction of Robotic Observatory - 7, Dome making I
Dear ATMers,
After months and months of waiting we finally got started at the real big thing. The construction of the dome was started up at 0900 hrs sharp this morning ( Saturday ) and things were kept running rather smoothly.
Before dusk the wall panels of the dome was all completed and the two hemispherical doom halves was also assembled.
As the sun started to sink below horizon we had to put a halt on the work. Final assemble will be carried out tomorrow Sunday.
Best regards
