“Astophysical” means here “related to both astronomy and physics”, not “related to astrophysics”. This an educational center with planetarium, observatory, meteo station, Foucault pendulum etc.

Observatory has 360mm Ritchey–Chrétien by Astrosib and 200mm APOLAR refractor by NPZ.

See video at Russia 1 channel.

Meeting with amateur astronomers is planned tomorrow, and I am invited too, but cannot participate because of health problems 🙁

Upd:

• Center’s website, in Russian
• Center’s location
