WELCOME

to Table Mountain &
the 1-Meter Telescope


The Pomona College 1-Meter (40-inch) Telescope resides at JPL's Table Mountain Facility high in the mountains above Wrightwood. The 40 inch telescope is shared with JPL and offers an advanced control system developed by Gary Grasdalen of JPL. Instruments include a 1024x1024 liquid Nitrogen cooled Photometrics CCD camera. In development (in collaboration with HMC and JPL) are a new filter-wheel/polarimeter, as well as a near-infrared camera useful for studying dense interstellar clouds and star-forming regions.
