Ziri zovuta kukhulupirira kuti malo oyamba apamwamba a pamwamba pa phiri - omangidwa mu 1888 - akadali akugwirabe ntchito ndikupatsa asayansi zinthu zamtengo wapatali. Pambuyo pa zaka zoposa zana, Lick Observatory akadali yoyamba ndi yopambana bungwe lofufuza za sayansi, loyendetsedwa ndi University of California ku Santa Cruz. Alendo ndi olandiridwa, ndipo malo okwera phiri ndi malo opitilira ulendo wa tsiku kuchokera ku Silicon Valley.
Ku Lick Observatory, mukhoza kulowa mkati mwa dome loyambirira kuti mumve za mbiri yake ndi zopindula zamakono. Ulendo waifupi wopita ku Shane zojambulajambula zamakono, kumene ziwonetsero zidzafotokozera chifukwa chake ndi chimodzi mwa ma telescopes akuluakulu ogwiritsa ntchito kupeza mapulaneti kunja kwa dzuwa.
Oyendayenda a Chilimwe
Njira yosangalatsa kwambiri yowonera Lick Observatory ndikutenga nawo mbali pa Programme ya Ochezera Oyendayenda mukatha kukacheza madzulo ndikupeza mwayi wodalirika kuti muyang'ane kudzera mu ma telescopes. Ndiwotchuka kwambiri kuti amagulitsa chaka chilichonse - ndipo amalangiza kuti asabweretse ana ochepera zaka 8. Nyimbo zawo za nyimbo za Spheres zikuchitikanso m'chilimwe. Lowani mndandanda wa mndandanda wawo wa makalata kuti mudziwe zambiri pa nyengo yamakono.
Malingaliro a Lick Observatory
- Tengani maulendo aulere opatsidwa theka la ola limodzi kuti mumvetse kufunikira ndi kukwaniritsa kwa Lick Observatory.
- Ana angapeze malo awa osasangalatsa - pokhapokha ngati ali a nyenyezi zakuthambo.
- Lick Observatory ili pamtunda wa mamita 4,200, ndipo idzakhala yozizira apo kuposa kulikonse kumene iwe unayambira. Tengani zovala zowonjezera.
- Lembani thanki lanu musanayambe kuphiri - mulibe malo okwera gasi kumtunda.
- Mudzapeza malo ogulitsira mphatso, makina osungira katundu, ndi zipinda zogona, koma palibe malo odyera.
- Musayese kupita ku Lick Observatory usiku - palibe kanthu koti muwone, ndipo magetsi anu oyendetsa galimoto angasokoneze mawonedwe a asayansi.
- Msewu wopita kuphiri ukutengeretsa munthu aliyense amene akudwala matenda oyendayenda. Bweretsani mankhwala omwe mumakonda kwambiri.
- Pogwiritsa ntchito ma wheelchair ku dome ya masentimita 120, fanani 408-274-5061 musanapite.
Mbiri Yachidule ya Lick Observatory
Lero, simungadabwe kupeza chodabwitsa cha sayansi pafupi ndi San Jose ku Silicon Valley, koma zinali zosiyana kumapeto kwa zaka za m'ma 1880.
Lillionaire ndi San Jose wokhalamo James Lick, yemwe adagulitsa chuma chake ku California, anathamanga ndi stroke ali ndi zaka 77. Pambuyo pake (adanenedwa) adadula mwana wake yekhayo chifukwa cha kunyalanyaza phokosoli, Lick kufunafuna njira yogwiritsira ntchito bwino chuma chake chotsalira. Lick analola mnzake George Davidson amunyengerere kuti asiye mapulani omanga piramidi mwaulemu, ndipo mmalo mwake akuthandizira chitukuko cha telescope yamakono apadziko lonse lapansi.
Atatha zaka 1888, patatha zaka 11 Lick atamwalira, Lick Observatory ya 36-inch refractor telescope (yopangidwa ndi lenti ya magalasi kuti ayang'ane kuwala) inali yaikulu kwambiri mwa mitundu yonse yomwe inamangidwapo.
Panthawi imene makina a telescope a Shane 120 anamaliza kumapeto, makinawo anali atagwiritsidwa ntchito pogwiritsa ntchito magalasi m'malo mwa magalasi a magalasi. Ndipo masiku ano, telescope ya 36-inch ndiyo yaikulu kwambiri ya mtundu wake, ndipo yaikulu kwambiri ndiyo yowonera masentimita 40 ku Yerkes Bay, Wisconsin.
Lolani ola limodzi kuti mufike kumeneko kuchokera ku San Jose ndipo osachepera ora kapena apo kuti muyang'ane pozungulira. Nthawi iliyonse ndi nthawi yabwino yochezera, koma ndibwino kwambiri pa tsiku lomveka bwino komanso osangalatsa ngati mutenga matikiti ku imodzi ya masewera achilimwe. Gwiritsani ntchito ma webcam kuti muwone tsopano.
Kodi Lick Observatory ili kuti?
Lick Observatory ili pa Phiri la Hamilton, kummawa kwa mzinda wa San Jose, lomwe limapezeka kudzera pa Mount Hamilton Road. Njirayo ndi yabwino, koma yapangidwa kuti ikhale mahatchi ndi magaleta ndipo ndi yopapatiza komanso yopepuka. M'nyengo yozizira, mvula m'chigwa imatha kukhala chisanu pa Phiri la Hamilton, ndipo msewu umatha kufikira utasungunuka.

Ngati Mudakonda Lick Observatory, Mukhozanso Kukonda
Phiri la Wilson, kunja kwa Los Angeles lili ndi makasitomalafoni a masentimita 60 omwe anali aakulu kwambiri padziko lapansi pamene anamaliza mu 1908. Pafupi ndi San Diego, mukhoza kupita ku phiri la Palomar limene Hale Telescope yomwe inamangidwa mu 1948 inamangidwabe mu 1948. lalikulu padziko lonse lapansi. Kumpoto kwa California, Hatcreek Radio Observatory pafupi ndi Phiri la Lassen yemwe Allen Telescope Array akugwirizanitsa ndi SETI Institute (Fufuzani Zowonjezereka kwa Padziko Lonse) ndi SRI International.
