Dr. C. Roger Lynds at the KPNO 4-meter

About this image

Dr. Roger Lynds lying on the floor of the Cassegrain cage at the Kitt Peak 4-meter telescope (1975). The instrument in the cage is a speckle camera, used for high angular resolution work by a clever design that partially compensates for the blurring effect of the atmoshphere.
