PHOENIX – Plans for the International Dark Sky Discovery Center, which will house the Phoenix area’s largest telescope, are coming into focus.
The center announced Tuesday that the conceptual design has been completed and construction is on track to begin in November.
“This brings us much closer to creating an international centerpiece that will inspire future scientists and people of all ages to understand how important dark skies are for the well-being of humans, plants, and animals and for opening the window to the observable universe,” Joe Bill, the project’s president, said in a press release.
