About this build

An observatory round a giant orrery. In a round courtyard paved with the planets' orbits in copper, a sun of glowstone in a gold cage stands high on a copper column, and long copper arms reach out from the column at different heights to the planets on their orbits: grey Mercury, cream Venus, blue and green Earth with its moon on an arm of its own, red Mars, banded Jupiter and Saturn in its rings. A colonnade and a wall ring the courtyard, with a gate to the south. At its head stands the observatory, a hall of white stone with a portico of pillars, a library and a map room inside, and a stair up into a copper dome where a telescope looks out through the slit.
