Steve's Foam Dome Observatory
I've written a few pages on my site about the dome

Apologies for the rough webpage layout.
Comments welcome.

Nice job Steve.
I was also inspired by Joe's website and opted for a plywood geodesic design.

Great job, brilliant cool room as well, should keep the temperature constant when closed.
