This was a Millennium Project of the North Georgia Astronomers, who wanted to commemorate the two major astronomical discoveries of the just PAST Second Millennium, while providing an educational resource for FUTURE generations in the Third Millennium.

The telescope was the tool, invented in the Second Millennium that led to both major discoveries
