The #UdaipurSolarObservatory (USO) is in #Udaipur, #Rajasthan in India on an island in the #FatehSagarLake. The sky conditions at Udaipur are quite favourable for solar observations. Since the observatory is situated amidst a large mass of water, air turbulence which occurs due to ground heating by sun's rays is decreased.
