I went to the Leviathan telescope build mentioned below. Its impressive to walk (or fly as here) around to see its size, especially compared to Lord Rosse's previous telescope - also modeled here. To see animations of the scope it is necessary to pay L$300 and since I still have nothing but the initial L25 I couldn't do it. It does seem that the visitor can not interact with the telescope so it is like a 3-D museum display. Neat, but I hoped for more.

Hi - I'd be happy to give you a complimentary 24-hour ticket to take the flying carpet tour at Lord Rosse's Monster Telescopes. Just send me an IM in SL. Sincerely, Troy McConaghy (Troy McLuhan in SL)
