shouldnt the asteroids of James Edward Keeler be included, or are asteroids not considered significant? Justinhoude 19:30, Apr 29, 2005 (UTC)

Lookin' good Gentgeen! I put in the coordinates of San Jose and the altitude in meters (rounded to the nearest hundred). Do we want to keep the "equipment" section, or roll it all into the tabel? Or should we remove that section of the table? --zandperl 23:06, 18 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- I don't have a problem with putting the equipment in both the article and in the table, as there is more info on the list than can fit in the table. Also, I only put the largest, most important pieces of equipment in the table, while the CCD camera and the 0.2m scope (ect.) are not on the table.
- By the way, I found this page [1] (http://www.ucolick.org/~sla/mtham/gpos.html) that list the exact location for each piece of equipment on Mt. Hamilton. I changed the location in the table to that of the 3m reflector just because it's the most used telescope on the mountain right now. Gentgeen 08:27, 19 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Photos
Nice new color photo. If we're going to have both photos up, can we identify which telescope is in which dome? Elf | Talk 14:44, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)
"Extremely calm" or laminar flow?
Is it the case that the night is "extremely calm" or is it the case, as I vaguely recall reading somewhere, that the important thing is not the air is calm but that the movement of the air is laminar? Dpbsmith (talk) 18:09, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)
