Telescopes
A Cassegrain reflector was built by Tinsley Laboratories and was commissioned in 1968. It is occasionally used for instruction, but is primarily used for monitoring active galaxies, performing photometry of transiting exoplanets, and other research purposes. The Ritchey-Chrétien reflector was refurbished in 1994 and is used for instruction.
