Anotace knihy

This book is written like a restrospectively expanded diary featuring milestones and anecdotes in the "life" of a telescope. Based on input received from people involved in its planning, building, operation, and many scientists who observed with it, the author tells this success story of The United Kingdom Infrared Telescope (UKIRT). Conceived in the mid 1970's as a cheap and cheerful light-bucket for the newly emerging field of infrared astronomy it has re-invented itself once a decade to remain at the forefront of infrared astronomy for more than 30 years. Even in 2012 / 2013, when ironically it faced almost certain closure, it remained one of the most scientifically productive telescopes in the world.§§Everybody interested in real astronomy projects including amateur and professional astronomers will enjoy reading that story and meet (again) the persons who lived it.§
