APSU to Unveil New Observatory August 19th
July 29, 2011
Clarksville, TN – The metal dome sat tucked away in a warehouse on campus. Dr. Spencer Buckner, associate professor of physics at Austin Peay State University, would check on it occasionally, wondering if it would ever sit atop the University’s first observatory.
“We’ve had that dome for five years, six years,” he said. “It sat in the warehouse for almost four years while we tried to find a place to put it.”
