Rain Delay? Nope 🌧️ | 10 Observatories in 10 Weeks – Week 3
🌩️ Week 3 didn’t just test the schedule — it tried to wipe it off the map.
Instead of slowing down, we tripled up and hit Observatory 3,4 and 5 of the 10 Observatories in 10 Weeks challenge… during sideways rain, hail, and winds that could relocate a roof without permission.
This week featured:
Roll-off roof frames fighting for their lives
Hail bouncing off steel like popcorn in a microwave
Mud trying to claim my boots permanently
And zero chance of waiting for “better weather”If you enjoy chaotic commitment, astronomy builds in hostile environments, or watching projects happen purely out of spite toward the sky — you're in the right place.

Anakie Observatory: Turning an Empty Dome Into a Stargazing Beast
We rolled into Anakie with one mission: bring an empty dome to life.
In one chaotic day, we installed the telescope, tested it, made sure the dome’s roof actually opens (crucial), and even dug a hole to relocate the cloud sensor like true astro gremlins.
Now this beast is ready to stare deep into space and silently judge humanity. 🔭🕳️🌌

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. 🔭🛻🌌

Certified Telescope Mechanics (Trust Us)
Diego and I drove into regional Victoria to fix a telescope dome because apparently that’s our life now.
We adjusted the focuser (it was vibing wrong), tried to mount a Celestron C14 on a pier (it said “no”), and realized we need an adapter the size of my ego.
It was dusty. It was weirdly emotional. One of us almost cried (me).
This is what happens when you give two guys tools, a telescope, and zero adult supervision. 🔧🔭🚙
