Description: | The Royal Greenwich Observatory moved to Herstmonceux after the war as pollution and street lighting were impinging its work at Greenwich. It has now moved to the top of a volcano in the Canaries, where the earth's magnetic field is very low, providing minimal disturbance for hypersensitive modern equipment. | Subjects: | Institutional Communications Telescope Dome Dome Observatory Engineering And Technology | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | staff | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
