Unless constructed with a specific research task in mind, observatories and other glass modules are imprudent for survival purposes.
― PDA, Dialogue

The Observatory is a Habitat Compartments module which is used to observe the ocean and life forms in their natural habitat.
The Observatory is constructed with the Habitat Builder and must be attached to a pre-existing room or corridor. The Observatory cannot be constructed alone.
A unique zen music soundtrack plays when inside the Observatory.
