There is very little information about its history, and archeological exploration is still waiting for itself. The castle was erected as a landholding center by the members of the Gen...

Astronomy and infrared go hand in hand. I am an astrophysicist who is working at the Wendelstein observatory in the Bavarian alps, where I am in charge of our multi-band camera 3KK which can see simultaneously in the optical and infrared.

But, infrared photography turns them into something completely different....
