We have designed from scratch and successfully installed the first ever observatory in Boadilla del Monte. This includes sketches and blueprints, home-made pieces, tailor-made solutions, full installation, control software design and implementation, security measures…
Building an observatory is not about buying some good pieces and instruments and putting them together somehow. Each observatory requires a new design thought for the specific location, budget, and purposes of the project. Recently we have made such a new design for the first ever observatory in Boadilla del Monte. The design included a customized structure and a tailor-made 2.5m dome by Imvo.
Once the installation was over we implemented the home-made control software for the dome and tested the whole system so that it was ready for its first light.
