SUMMER .

The procedure NIK is described by Observatory Director Tom Meneghini as “a fairly Herculean undertaking.” Observatory staff has located a photograph of Dr. John Strong and Dr. Enrique Gaviola of Caltech inspecting the surface of the 100-inch mirror coated with aluminum in- stead of the “customary silver.” Although the photograph appears to be undated, it was most likely 1935, for this was the year that the 100-inch mirror lost its silver coat- ing and was recoated with aluminum in a new vacuum chamber designed by Dr. Strong and built in the Carnegie prepared for a new aluminum coating. The bare 100-inch (it is actually Observatories’ machine shops on Santa Barbara Street in 101 inches) mirror, with its layers, bubbles, swirls, and cavities, in a prepared Pasadena. condition for a new aluminum coating. According to Milton Humason in his article entitled “The Aluminizing of the 100-inch and 60-inch Reflectors of the Mount Wilson Observatory” (Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, vol. 47, no. 276, April 1935), Dr. Strong’s method of aluminizing glass, pyrex, or quartz disks by the evaporation pro- cess was developed so rapidly that “it has recently been possible to aluminize successfully both the 100-inch and 60-inch reflectors of the Mount Wilson Observatory.” to page 5 In this issue .. -
The 100-Inch Telescope of the Mount Wilson Observatory
The 100-Inch Telescope of the Mount Wilson Observatory An International Historical Mechanical Engineering Landmark The American Society of Mechanical Engineers June 20, 1981 Mount Wilson Observatory Mount Wilson, California BACKGROUND THE MOUNT WILSON OBSERVATORY was founded in 1904 by the CARNEGIE INSTITUTION OF WASH- INGTON, a private foundation for scientific research supported largely from endowments provided by Andrew Carnegie. Within a few years, the Observatory became the world center of research in the new science of astrophysics, which is the application of principles of physics to astronomical objects beyond the earth. These include the sun, the planets of our solar system, the stars in our galaxy, and the system of galaxies that reaches to the limits of the The completed facility. visible universe. SCIENTIFIC ACHIEVEMENTS The Mount Wilson 100-inch reflector dominated dis- coveries in astronomy from its beginning in 1918 until the dedication of the Palomar 200-inch reflector in 1948. (Both telescopes are primarily the result of the lifework of one man — George Ellery Hale.) Many of the foundations of modern astrophysics were set down by work with this telescope. One of the most important results was the discovery that the intrinsic luminosities (total light output) of the stars could be found by inspection of the record made when starlight is dispersed into a spectrum by a prism or a grating. These so-called spectroscopic absolute lumi- nosities, discovered at Mount Wilson and developed for over forty years, opened the way to an understanding of the evolution of the stars and eventually to their ages. Perhaps the most important scientific discovery of the 20th century is that we live in an expanding Universe. -
