Is it creeper proof?

Built in a peaceful world… hard enough to design the shape without making it explosion proof!

Are you allowed to mention Vera Rubin's work as part of the model? Or has it gone the same way as Enola Gay. (She's a big heroine of mine)

No way - you built a Rubin - this is AWESOME! 🥳

I’ll make the building save files available next week, hopefully will be a good outreach tool!

Does it have a telescope inside? (skipping with excitement at this prospect)

I’ve been working on it, yes, but not done yet! Will need help from ppl with more technical expertise! (I’ve only been to the site once)

Fantastic 🙏

This is insane!

I live in Chile, and I got to visit the Cerro Tololo Observatory as part of a university field trip (studying astrophysics)... you could actually see the Vera C. Rubin Observatory in the distance, faintly, but it was there... this is awesome
