The biggest telescope in the middle east with our milky way arm

Kottamia Astronomical Observatory which is the largest telescope in the Arab world, including the Middle East and North Africa.

it has a main mirror diameter of about 1.88 meters.

I was on a private visit to the observatory organized by The Egyptian society for astronomy, and I took advantage of the low light pollution there to take these wonderful pictures of the galactic arm with the observatory.
