Van Vleck Observatory

Van Vleck Observatory (VVO, IAU code 298) is an astronomical observatory owned and operated by Wesleyan University. It was built in 1914 and named after the former head of the Department of Mathematics and Astronomy at the university, Prof. John M. Van Vleck. It is located in Middletown, Connecticut (USA).
==Telescopes==

The University owns three telescopes. A and a are both used for weekly public observing nights, open to the Wesleyan community and the general public. The third telescope, the Perkins Telescope, is used primarily for research, including for senior and graduate student thesis projects, as well as for departmental research programs.〔(Wesleyan University (university, Middletown, Connecticut, United States) – Britannica Online Encyclopedia ).

Retrieved 18 February 2011.〕 The Perkins scope is one of the largest telescopes in New England. Wesleyan participates in a consortium of universities that operate the WIYN .9-meter telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona. Students (undergraduate and graduate) and faculty have the opportunity to spend time in Arizona doing research with the telescope. Wesleyan also is a member of the Keck Northeast Astronomy Consortium (KNAC).〔(Keck Northeast Astronomy Consortium ), Swarthmore University. Retrieved 18 February 2011.〕
