Synopsis

I take a look back at the history of the Trottier Observatory, highlighting some of the least-known but most-interesting elements of its origin story, the not-so-secret interpretations of the many science installations located on the observatory plaza, and some of the neat things that have been done with the facility, which are mostly unknown outside its user community.
