Had the opportunity to visit a most fascinating solar #observatory Thursday in #Switzerland near #Arosa, the Astrophysikalisches Observatorium #Tschuggen (AOT) which #MaxWaldmeier had built in 1939, which was abandoned in 1980 and which amateur astronomers are now bringing back to the state just at that time: Here are the original Kern #coronagraph and another one from #Zeiss (with a huge spectrograph) it's sitting on.
