Inside the Blue Mountain Observatory |
Built in 1970, the Blue Mountain Observatory houses a 16" Boller and Chivens f/18 Cassegrain telescope on a permanent, equatorial mount inside an Ash Dome. Electrical power is supplied by a generator housed in a separate building.
Astronomical instrumentation includes an Op-Tec SSP-5A Photoelectric Photometer with U, B, V filters and a Santa Barbara Instrument Group ST-9E CCD Camera. |
