Rules and Regulations

Before the observation run starts you will be reminded of the rules and boundaries of the Mt. Wilson 60-inch Observatory and the surrounding grounds.

It is imperative that you and your companions remain only within the specified boundaries. This includes, but is not limited to, only staying within the observatory floor, and the downstairs bathroom. You will be given ample warning of exposed DC current wire and switches within the dome. You must be tidy, pick up your own waste, and basicly become a model citizen astronomer. This is after all "America's Observatory", and must be treated as such! :-)
