Born in Delphos in 1900, Peltier had to work hard at first, picking 900 quarts of strawberries to get the money he needed to fund his first telescope. But that dedication paid off, as over time Peltier had a few discoveries under his belt. So, to honor the man who looked up at the stars, the museum decided to recreate one of his more unique ventures - the merry-go-round observatory.
