Site Index
Taken from a southerly position after a gosun command. In the background you see a 120 m meteorological tower of Forschungszentrum Jülich. That tower is 300 m away towards the north-west and never blocks the sun.
Taken from a northerly position after a park command. Slighty to the left there is a lightning bolt that may briefly block the sun during the winter season.
