ASTRI (Astronomia a Specchi a Tecnologia Replicante Italiana) is a project of the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF) for gamma-ray astronomy. The ASTRI Mini-Array is composed of 9 dual-mirror Schwarzschild-Couder Cherenkov telescopes installed at the astronomical site of the Teide Observatory, on the island of Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain), one of the best observing sites in the world. In this context, the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics INAF asked us to install one of our OUTPOST 3M domes to host a Lidar instrument that will be used for the calibration of ASTRI. Protecting this instrument in a reliable way, in a high mountain environment exposed to wind, sun and temperature changes, is therefore an essential requirement for the operation of the entire array.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7841\" src=\"https:\/\/www.primalucelab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/OUTPOST-3M-dome-installed-at-the-ASTRI-Mini-Array-on-the-island-of-Tenerife-image1.jpg\" alt=\"OUTPOST 3M dome installed at the ASTRI Mini-Array on the island of Tenerife\" width=\"1000\" height=\"509\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.primalucelab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/OUTPOST-3M-dome-installed-at-the-ASTRI-Mini-Array-on-the-island-of-Tenerife-image1.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.primalucelab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/OUTPOST-3M-dome-installed-at-the-ASTRI-Mini-Array-on-the-island-of-Tenerife-image1-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.primalucelab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/OUTPOST-3M-dome-installed-at-the-ASTRI-Mini-Array-on-the-island-of-Tenerife-image1-1024x522.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.primalucelab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/OUTPOST-3M-dome-installed-at-the-ASTRI-Mini-Array-on-the-island-of-Tenerife-image1-768x391.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.primalucelab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/OUTPOST-3M-dome-installed-at-the-ASTRI-Mini-Array-on-the-island-of-Tenerife-image1-50x25.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.primalucelab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/OUTPOST-3M-dome-installed-at-the-ASTRI-Mini-Array-on-the-island-of-Tenerife-image1-1536x783.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.primalucelab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/OUTPOST-3M-dome-installed-at-the-ASTRI-Mini-Array-on-the-island-of-Tenerife-image1-60x31.jpg 60w, https:\/\/www.primalucelab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/OUTPOST-3M-dome-installed-at-the-ASTRI-Mini-Array-on-the-island-of-Tenerife-image1-100x51.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The dome arrives on site, where a concrete base had already been prepared in advance.
