chongo's Journal: Mt Stromlo - The loss of a great observatory facility

Yesterday the world lost a great and histroic astronomical facility. See my slashdot posting for details.

It was what I could write up in a short period time. I hope it is OK. I'll post corrections (or pointers to corrections) as replies to this journal entry, if needed.

p.s. As of 13:00 19 Jan 2003: No change in status of Asteroid 2002-XY38. Nor has anyhting changed with Asteroids 1997-XR2 and 2000-SG344.

Of course ... I forgot to check the spelling of the title. Oh well!
