The Mount Laguna Observatory 16-inch Telescope


Here is an image of the 16-inch telescope and its connected photometer. This telescope facility was patterned after a similar one that was in use for 30 years at Kitt Peak National Observatory for stellar photometry. The telescope was built by the Boller & Chivens division of the Perkin-Elmer Corporation. The attached photometer was designed and built at San Diego State University.
