Type: Ukrainian Coins Dedicated to the research institution of Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, one of the oldest observatories in Eastern Europe, founded in 1771, which is associated with the beginning of the development of astronomy in Lviv. The study of celestial objects in Lviv was then at the same level as in Berlin, Vilnius or Vienna, since the observatory was not inferior to the European similar institutions at the time. Scientists were brought up at Lviv University, where they specially introduced a separate course of astronomy. The main activities of the modern institution are the study of the Sun, star, interstellar medium, galaxies and the Universe as a whole. An important area of activity is also laser-remote, photometric and positional observations of artificial Earth satellites. A set of telescopes for such observations is in the register of scientific objects that constitute the national heritage of Ukraine.
