We Installed a GIANT Space Dome on a Mountain!

We drove from Melbourne to Toowoomba… via Coonabarabran (because apparently we can’t help turning a dome install into a full-blown road trip).

Stopped in Coonabarabran for a site visit on a future project — then headed to Mt Kent Observatory to install a brand new 4m Scopedome.

There were telescopes, late nights, too many servo pies, and one absolutely massive dome. Just another casual week in astro-land. 🔭🛻🌌
