Description:In May 1982, in the Green Bank Warehouse where the work was done, John Payne (left) and John Findlay contemplate engineering issues during the fabrication process for the new surface and back-up structure that would convert Tucson's 36 foot telescope into a 12 meter telescope. The 36 foot closed for resurfacing and upgrade on 15 July 1982, and first observations with the 12 meter were made on 17 January 1984. [show more]

Description:140 Foot Telescope construction - the 17.5 foot diameter spherical bearing leaving General Steel Industries at Eddystone PA, where it was cast in early 1963. With a weight of more than 350 tons, it was the largest nickel steel casting ever poured. Much of the material was cut away in subsequent machining. A special railroad car was cast in a single piece to transport it from the foundry to the Westinghouse plant at East Pittsburgh where it was machined. [show more]
