My Mount Jennings Observatory is named after the location mentioned in the radio 1930s broadcast of War of the Worlds. The 'artwork' shown below is related to that theme.

I also added my Messier, Hershel, and NexStar observing certificates.

If you removed all the astroevidence, mine looks like a typical garden shed. A few well placed shelves, some pegboard, a wall mounted set of "pockets" to hold the different manuals and that's about it.

Add mine for beautifying the inside.

I take photos of the CN'rs that visit, frame them & put the photos on the wall; brings back great memories, whenever I look at them.
