Unique in that it will be for public education and pleasure rather than for purely scientific usage, the new observatory's scientific equipment will rank with the world's finest. One of the prominent features will be the planetarium which demonstrates movements of the stars by projecting their images on an overhead dome. Built in Jena, Germany, this is the third such instrument brought to the United States. In addition the new instrument has a solar observatory, a 12-inch refracting telescope, a 50-foot model of the moon and a hall of other astronomical exhibits.'
