Hi John - no it’s not a radio telescope. The dome opens and can be rotated to look at different areas of the sky, and the telescope pictured yesterday is what’s inside . It’s an old-school reflector telescope, but instead of an eyepiece to look through there’s a photographic plate attached to the back.
Cheryl,
Is this a radio telescope ?
