Lick Observatory - San Jose Information
Lick Observatory
The Observatory, on the 4,209-foot summit of Mount Hamilton, is now an observation station overlooking the Santa Clara Valley. It was dedicated in 1888 and is a division of the University of California, Santa Cruz. A visitor center in the Main Building contains exhibits, photographic displays and a 36-inch telescope. Guided tours, given in the dome of the 36-inch refractor, relate the history of the observatory and discuss the research currently taking place. A short walk leads to the Shane Dome, where the 120-inch reflector can be seen from a visitors gallery. An audio visual presentation and interpretive displays are available.
