Thanks [USER=580]njcuse[/USER].  I remember you mentioned there was concern about the seams where the two parts of the roof meet.

This is a much better drawing of what the new roof will look like.  Do you happen to know what the outer perimeter of the roof, the hard part, will be made of?  I am assuming it will be composed mostly of steel, with another substance covering the exterior (probably the interior too).

I am assuming that no light will get through the hard part of the roof, which will reduce the amount of ambient light in the dome, but the PTFE portion will be a little more translucent than the middle part of the old roof, which did not have an inner liner.  The inner liner had to greatly reduce the amount of light that could get through that part of the old roof, so the amount of lost light with the hard roof shouldn't be huge.

The interior part of the new roof is markedly bigger than the center part of the old roof that did not have a liner.  Maybe twice as big if this drawing is accurate.  So that, and the more transparent surface, should make the dome noticeably brighter.  I think.

Still curious what the new roof will look like from the inside.  That one drawing was so badly done.  I hope a better one will be released soon.
