Detail InformationEdit
Hopkins Observatory is AN astronomical observatory closely-held and operated by Williams school in Williamstown, Massachusetts (USA). Made in 1838 by Albert Francis Charles Augustus Emmanuel Hopkins, the faculty claims that it’s the oldest observatory in America. The observatory dates to 1834 once academician. Albert Francis Charles Augustus Emmanuel Hopkins traveled to England to get astronomical instrumentality. His students made the observatory 1836-1838 within the center of the quad. It absolutely was enraptured once in 1908 and once more to its gift location in 1961, wherever it currently is a planetarium. Today’s building still contains the first transit, regulator with mercury-compensated setup, and rule.
The museum’s second director, Harry Truman Henry Safford, was a conniving prodigy. In 1852 the firm of Alvan Clark (Cambridge, Massachusetts) engineered a 7″ optical telescope, that was fixed for the observatory’s sesquicentennial. In 1963 the planetarium projector was put in and named in memory of Willis Milham, prof of uranology 1901-1942. The observatory’s aspect rooms became the Mehlin depository of uranology in memory of Theodore Mehlin, prof of uranology 1942-1971.
