Arrow Builder's license? Rob McNaught seeks your help. Search for NEO's

Rob McNaught has put out a request for assistance from someone with a
builder's license to repair the dome of the Uppsala telescope at Siding
Springs.

The Uppsala telescope is used by Rob for searching for NEOs and it was
this instrument that Rob used to discover many of the comets that bear his name.

for NEO searching. Work has to be done in the next 3 months and may only
take a a few days to a week.
Cheers, Rob
