It will be tough to construct a telescope foundation with all this white stuff piled up on the ground. Where’s our layout stakes?

What we did in Cerro Tololo in 2013…
Kangaroos at our Construction Site!
It’s not everyday you meet a couple of Roos on the road to your Observatory Building project – however, this was quite common for the team at the KMTNet in Siding Spring Observatory! We sure had fun with the challenges of the this Design-Build observatory construction project…
Observatory Construction in South Africa
About one year ago, the team from Kappcon traveled to the South African Astronomical Observatory in Sutherland, South Africa. It was an amazing work trip full of long days, cooperation, and problem solving. This was a truly great team effort. The telescope is one of three for the Korean Microlensing Telescope Network.
This was part of the Design-Build observatory construction contract that Kappcon has recently completed.
These telescopes will be detecting a lot of planets in the near future.
