Hide Profile

From 1976 through 1980 the Center conducted a project to document the history of modern astronomy and astrophysics, conducting some 400 hours of oral history interviews, microfilming the papers of a number of astronomers, and helping observatories to preserve their records. The oral histories and microfilms are now a part of the Niels Bohr Library's collections. The project was led by Spencer R. Weart with David DeVorkin.
