Very nice model Jan.

At first I though I've never seen such an antenna but after googling it I remembered much smaller ones installed on some buildings and communication towers in Ontario. They were used by Bell Canada and other entities for microwave coms. They disappeared for most part and are replaced by fiber optic network. If I see one still hanging I'll shoot picture of it.

The astronomer's house is a reconstruction of an old house around 1620, the time of Galileo. It will house within Astroparc, the collection of ancient astronomical instruments.
Combination of 2 paper models from Dave Graffam models that I highly recommend. Printing at 23% for the Z scale.

This one looks like a complex assembly.

I was expecting something like that. Observatory with insides.

This must be the Mt Wilson observatrory model, right? Good to see it built. I spotted the model years ago but didn't aquire it back then and now they discontinued it. Shoot! Following with interest Jan, as always.

It is right. Not an easy model but a pity they discontinued it.
