4K video @ vimeo.com/228554021

 

During our trip to Sedona and the Grand Canyon in July / August 2017 we toured the Lowell Observatory (elev. 7250 ft.) and the historic 24 - inch Clark refractor (used by Percival Lowell to document the "canals" on Mars). Unfortunately the "Pluto" telescope was not available for viewing as it was undergoing extensive restoration offsite.
