Image Description
Here we see the floor of McCormick's dome room being sanded in May of 2006. There are plans afoot to restore the appearance of the scope to its turn-of-the-century grandeur! Hopefully the additional plan to hide a digital readout of RA & Dec. will also be figured out! It'd make things more user friendly fer sher!

There was a lineoleum cover on this for years & years that was removed. The tracks that the observer's chair rode on had to be modified, but it works better now!
