DRIVEWAY TO TELESCOPE ENCLOSURES
AT FAIRBORN OBSERVATORY

Initial Site Development:TSU supported the initial development of Fairborn Observatory's site in Washington Camp, Arizona, to the extent necessary to put the 2-m AST there. This development includes helping select the actual location for the telescopes before Fairborn Observatory relocated to WC, paying for a road up the hill to the telescopes, paying for a fraction of the cost of the electrical connection, and building a workshop building.
