Thanks for the post Lars.
The 50cm Uppsala telescope Barry posted about lived for 25 years on top of Mt Stromlo in Canberra. It was moved to Siding Spring Mountain in 1982. The dome on Mt Stromlo was destroyed in the wildfire that swept the mountain 20 years ago.
The Uppsala Dome site now houses the McNamara-Saunders Teaching Telescopes in which Geoff McNamara spends his evenings teaching young college students the wonders of the heavens.
