The '''Lunar Observatory''' is a lunar base from the [[World of 2001]], located in Planck Crater on the moon’s far side, is essentially Clarke’s [[Tchalinko(2001)|Tchalinko]]. In the novel Heywood Floyd runs into a Russian astronomer on ''Space Station 1'' who had been "building up the giant radio observatory on the far side of the Moon". It’s probable Clarke imagined a single-dish radio telescope built like the famous Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico, however this "giant" design makes for suitably fun lunar operations! The '''Lunar Observatory''' is an international scientific facility. A surrounding surface mesh and specular reflections have been added to the '''Lunar Observatory''' for World of 2001 3.1.
