Cerro Tololo is located in Chile's Andean foothills, at 2200 metersaltitude, and is one of the finest locations for astronomy in theworld, with a clear and stable atmosphere and skies free of lightpollution.

This is not a composite image.

2048x2048

It was taken by Roger Smith using a 2048x2048 scientific CCD which hasmuch higher sensitivity than photographic film, revealing greaterdetail in exposures short enough (20 seconds) to eliminate star trails.The CCD, normally used on the telescope pictured, was temporarily matedto a Zeiss Distagon 40 mm f/4 lens by a "camera body" made in house.

TheUniversity of Michigan/Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory CurtisSchmidt telescope is a twin to the Case Western Reserve Universityinstrument on Kitt Peak.
Schmidt-type telescopes are used to take wide angle pictures of large regions of the sky.
This picture was taken by John Lutnes in the late 1960s, shortly afterthe telescope was moved to CTIO, and features observer John Graham in arepresentative pose (yes, we know the dome is closed and the lights areon, this was to indicate how the telescope was used).

Visible are the 4-meter, as the largest telescope, with the Universityof Arizona's 90-inch and the Warner and Swasey Observatory (24-inchBurrell Schmidt) in the foreground.
A variety of aerial views can be found under the facilities category.
