When it was made, the primary lens was priced at of Denver Penrose $1,000. Today, it is considered priceless. The mechanical mounting for the Archives telescope was built by George N. Saegmuller, who owned and operated Fauth and Company instrument makers in Washington DC. Humphrey Chamberlin was active in the Denver real estate business at the time, so Saegmuller and Clark both accepted land holdings as part of their payment. However, when the great Silver Panic of 1893 caused the bottom to drop out of the landowning business, Mr. Chamberlin went bankrupt and the properties offered to Saegmuller and Clark rapidly declined in value. Professor Howe paid Clark with his own cash and compensated Saegmuller by delaying delivery of his finished telescope for a time, personally assisting with its display at the Chicago Columbian Exposition of 1893. The telescope components and lenses were finally shipped to Denver by 1894. Howe was concerned for the safety of the 150-lb. lenses, so he personally transported it from Cambridge to Denver in a private train car. Howe performed final assembly of the telescope at Chamberlin Observatory, in addition to his duties as Dean and professor at DU. The University assist- ed as much as it could in paying Clark and Saegmuller, but Howe had to pay some of the fees out of his own pocket. Trial observations began on July 14, 1894, with “first light.” This initial use of the telescope by Howe included observations of stars in the famed cluster M13 in Hercules and Earth’s moon. The first public use of the telescope occurred on August 1 of the same year, when Howe entertained the Swedish Methodist Christian Endeavor Society with a look at Saturn.

  • 12-Inch Alvan Clark Telescope Restoration
    12-Inch Alvan Clark Telescope Restoration: Summary of Research and Final Recommendations Deborah Culmer and Hannah Johnson September, 2011 Introduction The first telescope installed at Lick Observatory was a second-hand purchase, with the telescope and its optic made by the premier telescope makers of the time, Alvan Clark and Sons of Cambridge, MA. The dome that housed it was the first structure built on Mt. Hamilton, from bricks fired in a kiln on location. That dome still stands; and until the 1970’s, the 12-inch refracting telescope was in operation, but without its original driver clock and gears (replaced with an electronic drive, perhaps in the 1950’s). Since it was decommissioned, the 12-inch has been in storage. The Lick Instrument Lab has retrieved it, and it is currently on location at UC Santa Cruz in anticipation of total restoration. In the summer of 2011, a research project was launched to determine to what era and condition the telescope should be restored. In recent years, there has been great interest in historical restoration of Alvan Clark telescopes (and others, to be sure). As a result of that interest, we had a pool of organizations and institutions from which to glean information. Two we visited in person; many more we contacted via email and conference calls. Based on our research and interviews, we offer our recommendations on the restoration of this historically important telescope. 1. Research In beginning this project, it was very important to understand the history of the 12-inch Alvan Clark, especially since it was the first telescope set up on Mt.

  • As the Dome of Twilight Sinks Below The
    As the dome of twilight sinks below the horizon, a mechanical corps de ballet starts a slow-motion pirouette with each dancer keeping the unblinking eye of a telescope locked on a single spot in the heavens. Shutters open and ancient photons, ending a journey that may have started before the earth was born, collide with sensors that store an electron to mark that photon's arrival. With the dance in motion the directors sit back to watch the show; another imaging session has begun... Image by Marcus Stevens A Full and Proper Kit An introduction to the gear of astro-photography The young recruit is silly – 'e thinks o' suicide; 'E's lost his gutter-devil; 'e 'asn't got 'is pride; But day by day they kicks him, which 'elps 'im on a bit, Till 'e finds 'isself one mornin' with a full an' proper kit. Rudyard Kipling Like the young recruit in Kipling's poem 'The 'Eathen', a deep-sky imaging beginner starts with little in the way of equipment or skill. With 'older' imagers urging him onward, providing him with the benefit of the mistakes that they had made during their journey and allowing him access to the equipment they've built or collected, the newcomer gains the 'equipment' he needs, be it gear or skills, to excel at the art. At that time he has acquired a 'full and proper kit' and ceases to be a recruit. This paper is a discussion of hardware, software, methods and actions that a newcomer might find useful. It is not meant to be an in-depth discussion of all forms of astro-photography; that would take many books and more knowledge than I have available.

    12/2/2018 Sirius - Wikipedia Coordinates: 06 h 4 5 m 08.9 1 7 3 s, −1 6 ° 4 2 ′ 5 8.01 7 ″ Sirius Sirius (/ˈsɪriəs/, a romanization of Greek Σείριος, Seirios, lit. "glowing" or "scorching") is a star system Sirius A and B and the brightest star in the Earth's night sky. With a visual apparent magnitude of −1.46, it is almost twice as bright as Canopus, the next brightest star. The system has the Bayer designation Alpha Canis Majoris (α CMa). What the naked eye perceives as a single star is a binary star system, consisting of a white main-sequence star of spectral type A0 or A1, termed Sirius A, and a faint white dwarf companion of spectral type DA2, called Sirius B. The distance separating Sirius A from its companion varies between 8.2 and 31.5 AU.[24] Sirius appears bright because of its intrinsic luminosity and its proximity to Earth. At a distance of 2.6 parsecs (8.6 ly), as determined by the Hipparcos astrometry satellite,[2][25][26] the Sirius system is one of Earth's near neighbours. Sirius is gradually moving closer to the Solar System, so it will slightly increase in brightness over the next 60,000 years. After that time its distance will begin to increase and it will become fainter, but it will continue to be the brightest star in the Earth's night sky for the next 210,000 years.[27] The position of Sirius (circled). Sirius A is about twice as massive as the Sun (M☉) and has an absolute visual magnitude of 1.42.

Established in 1897 on Lake Geneva in Williams Bay, Wisconsin, the observatory, situated on a 78-acre park site, houses all the Department’s activities. Most of the important history of Yerkes Observatory can be found at astro.uchicago.edu. I won’t elaborate too much on its history here; suffice it to say that this great observatory was the result of the hard work and dedication of George Ellery Hale (1868– 1938). Hale had a unique ability to talk wealthy tycoons into funding his astronomical endeavors—pun intended. We can thank him for some of the great telescopes of our time. Some of the more familiar are the 60- and 100-inch Hooker reflecting telescopes on Mount Wilson near Pasadena and his namesake, the Great 200-inch Hale reflecting telescope at Mount Palomar observatory near San Diego. On March 7, 2018, UChicago announced plans to wind down its activities at Yerkes Observatory. As a result, the observatory will close its doors to visitors and researchers on October 1, 2018, with no prospects and no immediate plans to reopen In the last month, my wife Debbie and I decided to take a trip to Williams Bay to visit the Yerkes Observatory and its great 40- The 40-Inch Alvan Clark & Sons Refractor Credit: inch refractor telescope.

  • Appendix I Lunar and Martian Nomenclature
    APPENDIX I LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE A large number of names of craters and other features on the Moon and Mars, were accepted by the IAU General Assemblies X (Moscow, 1958), XI (Berkeley, 1961), XII (Hamburg, 1964), XIV (Brighton, 1970), and XV (Sydney, 1973). The names were suggested by the appropriate IAU Commissions (16 and 17). In particular the Lunar names accepted at the XIVth and XVth General Assemblies were recommended by the 'Working Group on Lunar Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr D. H. Menzel. The Martian names were suggested by the 'Working Group on Martian Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr G. de Vaucouleurs. At the XVth General Assembly a new 'Working Group on Planetary System Nomenclature' was formed (Chairman: Dr P. M. Millman) comprising various Task Groups, one for each particular subject. For further references see: [AU Trans. X, 259-263, 1960; XIB, 236-238, 1962; Xlffi, 203-204, 1966; xnffi, 99-105, 1968; XIVB, 63, 129, 139, 1971; Space Sci. Rev. 12, 136-186, 1971.
