Telescope sizes rise as new observatories planned
The piece notes a shift in wartime output driven by more workers rather than productivity gains. It mentions the Q lat telescope as a major figure, next after the 200 inch Hale at Mt Palomar. The 100 inch Hooker telescope at Mt Wilson will be superseded by a 120 inch at Lick Observatory on Mt Hamilton near San Francisco, making it the world’s second largest when finished.
