Web-cams

The web-cam viewing the telescope was moved as the fans of the new cooling system was blocking the view. A second web-cam was installed on the weather mast, looking down on the loading ramp and the FIES building. This gives a much better view of this area, which is especially of interest during periods of bad weather. Currently, the mirror lift which is only used when the main mirror is aluminized, partly blocks the view but it will be moved a bit further away from the telescope so that specifically the stairs going down to the entrance of the FIES building can be seen better.
