We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service.

Subject: Largest telescope Author: teddy4358735a@pmd03.com [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 20:22:34 08/04/03 Mon The world's largest fully robotic telescope has taken its first images. The Liverpool Telescope is a two-metre optical telescope. It sits on La Palma in the Canary Islands but belongs to the Astrophysics Research Institute of Liverpool John Moores University. The telescope is remotely operated and will be used to study supernovae and gamma ray bursts, which result from cataclysmic explosions in space. The device is supported by the UK's Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council (PParc). [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
