on the right he has been @ Griffith for 26yrs and also operates the
60" & 100" telescopes @ Mt. Wilson.. The images in the dome were taken
just prior to opening as we were bringing the instrument back to life
after being mothballed for 4 yrs. Robert

That Tesla Coil is really cool. I wonder how difficult it is to build one.
Has anyone here built one?
