A New Look
for the INT
Thomas Augusteijn
(INT Manager, ING)
As
part of the regular maintenance of the telescope, the INT has recently
been repainted in white. Furthermore, a new motorized counterweight has
been installed to facilitate the change-over between IDS and the WFC (or
CIRSI). To compensate the additional weight added by this system, two old
finders have been removed and it is planned to remove FOS before
the end of the year.
