Domes on the vehicle roof make way for a telescope and a radio dish to allow it to become an astronomical observatory, its creators said. "We wanted to create a space where people could look at the stars and be amazed at the wonder of the universe, but you could also look very closely at the place they live," Mr Morison said.
