SCHMIDT PLATE LOGS

WRITTEN BY DATA SLAVE DAVID WALKER & JORGE MARIN.

The following is the log of Schmidt telescope plates taken between 1 May 1967 and 12 Oct 1994.

The records were transcribed by David Walker and another 7500 or so were created by someone else. Unfortunately they don't seem to have followed a consistent format as was used originally in the Log Book, so it is hard to find a particular plate.

 This list for the moment is probably most useful to use if you know the aproximate date of when the plate was taken since the files are divided by month. If you know the plate number the records start at 0 and go up till 34203. Each file contains approximately 200 plates, so do the math......

 It is probably a good idea to set your font size between 8-10 to read the records easier...

 Well, if you need to find a particular plate, have lots of FUN!
