Making a Backyard Observatory Replete With Retractable Roof
1 min read
Summary
A Hackaday reader has shared a video on the site revealing their own personal observatory, which they have made themselves.
The YouTube video shows the construction of the observatory in the sender’s backyard, with no commentary, but it is clear to see the progression and the final result.
The most impressive attribute is the retractable roof, which allows unhindered sky views for astronomy study.
The sender has also upgraded the observatory from one to two telescopes, by strengthening the mounting pole foundations mid-video.
