This axle is geared to a potent motor which offers elevation for the barrel , although rotation is achieved by rotation from the platform.

For this reason the inhabitants on the surrounding territory have provided it the name with the "Peace Gun." The barrel is 70 feet long, with a weight of 22 tons imitation cartier watch ; the lenses have a diameter of 28 inches and are a foot thick. 3 months have been necessary in the grinding and polishing of your lens which magnify the stars to a size exactly where each of the information from the surface of distant planets are plainly visible.
