Initially used for professional and graduate research, the observatory is now used mostly by undergraduate students for instruction and research.〔 The Manastash Ridge Radar (MRR) is located in the MRO building. MRR is a bistatic, passive radar controlled by the University of Washington's Radar Remote Sensing Laboratory (RRSL) led by Dr. John Sahr.
