Hi There!
Sorry about my bad english. I'm a 19 year old student at the European
School in Munich (that explains my bad english...) and my hobby is to make
a "show" for the visitors in our small local observatory. A main part of
this show is the planetarium, especially if the conditions (weather) are
bad.
The planetarium itself (Zeiss ZKP1) is very small (about 30 seats) and has
only a few "special-effects" (A (very loud) slide projector, projectors
for solar and lunar eclipses and a primitive Falling-Star projector).
The observation site is the roof of the building (platform), which
contains 2 major telescopes (7 inch refractor / 12 inch Cassegrain) and
several minor telescopes. The location is very good for the visitors but
very bad for observation - in the middle of the metropole!
There are several rooms, which are enabling us to show films, do lectures
etc...
I have got several questions to this mail area:
1. What is the purpose of this area?
2. For which people is this area?
Thanx for answering!
Andi!
