    Here you have a good view of the TIRA space observation radar. The white "sphere" with a diameter of 47.5 meters is a highly visible feature in the region. It is the world's largest radome for the TIRA space observation radar of the Fraunhofer Institute for High Frequency Physics and Radar Techniques. The Fraunhofer FHR regularly supplies analysis and observation data of space objects created using its TIRA space observation radar to the German Armed Forces' Space Situation Center.
