The Astrophysical Institute Potsdam is moving into its new technology
building on the campus of the Sternwarte Babelsberg. This important step
forward will provide the institute with workshops, labs, and other technical
facilities which are required to participate in the development of
modern telescopes and focal plane instrumentation.
The new building also
includes offices and seminar rooms for 60 scientists and technical staff
members.
The new science and technology building will be dedicated to the memory
of Karl and Martin Schwarzschild during the inauguration ceremony on March 13,
2000.
