This is a fairly large sundial that fits with the architecture of the building. It was donated in 1993 by the Niermeyer Foundation, a private charity set up by David Niermeyer of Vestal New York in 1991.

(visit link) "The Kopernik Observatory & Science Center opened in 1974, built by the Kopernik Society of Broome County to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the birth of Mikolaj Kopernik, the man known to the world as Copernicus – the “father” of modern astronomy. Since that time, hundreds of thousands of children and adults have experienced the wonders of science through the Observatory’s programs."
Sundial Type: Horizontal - Flat base, Ground or Pedestal mounted dial plate
