Fernbank Telescope

To many it’s known as the Fernbank Telescope, but it’s actual name is the Dr. Ralph L. Buice, Jr. Observatory.   It hosts a telescope that’s nearly three feet across under a large white dome that opens to the night sky.  It’s the largest telescope in the southeastern United States and the Fernbank Science Center has free observations a couple of evenings a week, weather permitting.   You can find out more here.
