Richard Acuff (acuff) > A salute to Mr. Lick! We didn't know he is entombed under the that dome (built starting in 1875) at the time...
Richard Acuff (acuff) > Enjoying the view.
Richard Acuff (acuff) > The big dome is the giant 120-inch reflector telescope, currently the jewel of the Lick collection.
Richard Acuff (acuff) > Becki likes to visit *all* the school houses in her district...
Richard Acuff (acuff) > I don't know what's in this one, but it looks cool!
Richard Acuff (acuff) > The SUPER SPECIAL insider tour! This is the spectroscope instrument currently mounted on the bottom of the 120-inch reflector. It was DIM in there, so sorry about the photo quality.
Richard Acuff (acuff) > One of the scouts "helping" set up the experiement??? Actually, he's several feet away :-)
Richard Acuff (acuff) > In this view, looking up at the 120-inch reflector from below, we see one arm of the giant "fork" that holds it, and, on the right side, the powerful laser used to generate the "artificial star" for the cutting-edge adaptive optics technology.
Richard Acuff (acuff) > I don't think that will help if the 100+ ton telescope falls on you...
