Specola Vaticana
Located in Castel Gandolfo in the hills above Rome, Specola Vaticana is one of the oldest observatories in the world. Formerly located in the Pope's summer palace, the observatory has just moved down the road to a new location, where astronomer, meteoriticist (and Jesuit) Brother Guy Consalmagno is waiting to conduct the tour.
