Add a review about Kalyazin Observatory

The radio astronomy observatory is located next to Kalyazin and as a magnet attracts tourists here. Still: a huge technical "plate", in which there is a real laboratory and a staff of scientists who (as, apparently, many think) are conducting superconfidential research.

To get an excursion to the Kalyazin observatory is unlikely, but to take pictures of the telescope near it's quite real.

In fact, Kalyazin's observatory is engaged in the study of completely unclassified, but only complicated areas of knowledge for ordinary people: spectral radio astronomy, pulsar physics, and others. However, one of the directions of the Kalyazin Observatory is the study of galactic and extragalactic objects. Well, UFO issues worry humanity for more than a decade ...

The radio telescope of the Kalyazin Observatory, which helps scientists in their work, by the way, is considered one of the largest in Russia. Its height is almost 180 m, and the diameter is as much as 64 m.

It will not be possible to get on an excursion to Kalyazin's observatory, but it's quite possible to take pictures of the telescope near it. A few years ago Kalyazin's observatory experienced a serious fire, but the "plate" was restored and put back into operation.

Kalyazin Observatory is located several kilometers from the city, near Tolstoukhovo village.
