| dbo:abstract | L'Observatori Chamberlin és un observatori astronòmic propietat i operat per la Universitat de Denver. És troba a Denver, Colorado (EUA) dins el Observatory Park. És anomenat així per Humphrey B. Chamberlin, un magnat immobiliari de Denver que va donar 50,000$ l'any 1888 per construir i equipar-lo. L'edifici de l'observatori va ser dissenyat per Robert S. Roeschlaub, amb els aspectes astronòmics i les funcions va dissenyar-les el Professor Herbert Alonzo Howe després que va visitar molts observatoris a l'est. Fou modelat seguint l', a , a Northfield, Minnesota, i construït de blocs de pedra sorrenca vermella. L'estructura Romànica inclou una rotonda central i sostre de volta. La construcció va començar l'any 1890. La lent de 20 polzades de l'objectiu del telescopi refractor va ser fet per Alvan Clark & Sons, i el montatge va ser fet per George Nicholas Saegmuller. El muntatge es recolza en una columna de ferro fos, que és al seu torn el suport d'un moll de pedra. L'assemblea del telescopi va ser supervisada pel Professor Herbert Alonzo Howe. El telescopi va veure la primera llum l'any 1894. A partir del 2011, la Societat Astronòmica de Denver (Denver Astronomical Society) organitza a l'observatori diversos esdeveniments oberts al públic cada mes. Com es troba localitzat en una àrea metropolitana gran, l'observatori és fortament afectat per la contaminació lumínica, el qual limita el seu ús en recerca científica. (ca) Das Chamberlin Observatory ist ein astronomisches Observatorium, das der Universität von Denver gehört und von ihr betrieben wird. Es befindet sich in Denver, Colorado (USA), im Observatory Park. Es ist nach Humphrey B. Chamberlin benannt, einem Immobilienmagnaten aus Denver, der 1888 insgesamt 50.000 US-Dollar für den Bau und die Ausstattung der Anlage spendete. Das Observatoriumsgebäude wurde von Robert S. Roeschlaub entworfen. Die astronomischen Aspekte und Funktionen wurden von Professor Herbert Alonzo Howe entworfen, nachdem er viele Observatorien im Osten besucht hatte. Es wurde dem Goodsell Observatory am Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota, nachempfunden und aus roten Sandsteinblöcken gebaut. Die romanische Struktur umfasst eine zentrale Rotunde und ein Kuppeldach. Der Bau begann 1890. Die 20-Zoll-Objektivlinse für das Hauptteleskop des Observatoriums wurde von Alvan Clark & Sons hergestellt, und die Fassung wurde von gebaut. Die Montierung ruht auf einer gusseisernen Säule, die wiederum von einem massiven Steinpfeiler getragen wird. Die Montage des Teleskops wurde von Professor Herbert Alonzo Howe überwacht. Das Teleskop erblickte 1894 das erste Licht. 2018 veranstaltete die Denver Astronomical Society jeden Monat mehrere öffentliche Veranstaltungen im Observatorium. Da sich das Observatorium in einer großen Metropolregion befindet, ist es stark von Lichtverschmutzung betroffen, was seine Verwendung in der wissenschaftlichen Forschung einschränkt. Im späten 19. Jahrhundert waren große Refraktoren trotz ihrer im Vergleich zu Reflektoren kleinen Öffnungen beliebt. Ein Faktor, der ihnen half, waren mehrere gescheiterte Reflektorprojekte, während das 26-Zoll Naval Observatory 1877 die Marsmonde gefunden hatte. In nur zehn Jahren erfolgte die Verlagerung hin zu großen Reflektoren wie beim 60-Zoll-Hale von 1908. (de) Chamberlin Observatory is an astronomical observatory owned and operated by the University of Denver. It is located in Denver, Colorado (US) in Observatory Park. It is named for Humphrey B. Chamberlin, a Denver real estate magnate who pledged $50,000 in 1888 to build and equip the facility. The observatory building was designed by Robert S. Roeschlaub, with the astronomical aspects and functions designed by Professor Herbert Alonzo Howe after he visited many observatories in the east. It was modeled after the Goodsell Observatory at Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota, and constructed from rusticated red sandstone blocks. The Romanesque structure includes a central rotunda and domed roof. Construction began in 1890. The 20-inch objective lens for the observatory's main refracting telescope was made by Alvan Clark & Sons, and the mount was built by George Nicholas Saegmuller. The mount rests on a cast iron pillar which is in turn supported by a massive stone pier. Assembly of the telescope was supervised by Professor Herbert Alonzo Howe. The telescope saw first light in 1894. As of 2018, the Denver Astronomical Society hosts several public outreach events at the observatory every month. As it is located in a large metropolitan area, the observatory is heavily affected by light pollution, which limits its use in scientific research. The observatory was built during the golden era of great refractors in the late 19th century. The discovery of the Moons of Mars in 1877 using a 26-inch refractor, and several failed reflector projects, contributed to the popularity of refractor telescopes at that time. However, this era only lasted for ten years before the shift toward big reflectors occurred.
