You're standing at Brorfelde Observatory, out in the Danish countryside near Holbæk. Take a look around. Out here, away from the big city, Danish astronomers spent decades watching the sky. The observatory was a branch of the University of Copenhagen's observatory until 1996. One of the people who made it happen was the Danish astronomer Bengt Strömgren.
