The 15 inch refractor, formally at the Dominion Observatory in Ottawa
Canada had its original achromatic lens replaced with a triplet apochromat
lens several years ago. The telescope is now at the Helen Hogg Observatory
which is part of the Canada Science & Technology Museum in Ottawa. It is
open for public viewing. See: www.science-tech.nmstc.ca
