EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the majestic beauty and scientific significance of the Mount Wilson Observatory in Pasadena, California, USA, as it appeared in the mid-1940s. Located in the San Gabriel Mountains east of Los Angeles, the observatory has been a beacon of astronomical discovery since its establishment in 1904. The image showcases the iconic 100-inch Hooker Telescope, which dominated the observatory's landscape and revolutionized astronomy with its groundbreaking discoveries. The telescope, which was the largest in the world at the time, was instrumental in confirming the expanding universe theory and providing evidence for the existence of quasars and black holes. The photograph also reveals the serene and otherworldly atmosphere of the observatory, with its sprawling campus nestled amidst the rugged mountains and blanketed in a layer of mist. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the awe-inspiring moments of discovery that unfolded within these walls. Mount Wilson Observatory continues to be a vital hub of astronomical research, pushing the boundaries of our understanding of the universe.
