Is a glass dome roof structurally sound? I am planning my dream house and I want a stargazing room like this but I am worried about complications such as snow.

What's the purpose of that small set of curtains near the bottom? That's not going to block anything.

We share the same dream Anon. I want to build a tower home in a secluded forest somewhere without light pollution with a glass dome observatory ontop. As far as I found out the main obstacle is local construction regulations. A glass dome both practically and economically sound as far as projects go. The biggest practical obstacle is making it easy to clean and polish to optimize the experience. Algea growth is annoying and persistent on slanted glass.

I mean they exist so it must be right?
Just don't build it someplace that gets windy or has a lot of birds

Winds aren't really an issue, domes are more or less the optimal shape for wind diffraction. Of course Bernoulli have something to say about that, but making it heavy alleviates some of that. In fact, the biggest problem would be wind propelled debris but if it's up high that would alleviate that somewhat.

The curtains aren't for blocking light, they're for privacy. If you are on an elevated level and there are pedestrians at ground level, then they will see you through the bottom of the window. Hence, if you want to block their line of sight, all you would need is curtains in the bottom window panel.
